Damn! Wish I didn't have to work. I usually go to that one when I know about it. It's usually a pretty good turnout and some NICE old school cars and some cool old school guys to go with'em.

Chad, how often do they have them? It's been awhile since I've heard of them having one.

I'd drive mine but steve might cry if I damage his tranny anymore than it already is lol. Steve we need to set something up for Sept if thats ok to do trans, stall and gauges etc if thats ok. I already had my 2 days off for August lol. I am already getting ready to do a pcm conversion and repin my harness from the crappy 98 pcm to the 99+ and have someone go ahead and get me a base tune for my H/C stall so I can get this thing rolling. I am gonna have something for him real soon...if hes up to tuning it that is.

Paging Greg McBride!!!!!!!!!!

Nope, I'll just pay you less for it and charge you more for your converter/cooler/gauge install

Alright guys; I'm having a hard time making decisions and want some of your opinions on tool boxes.

I've got one of these already:


http://www.samsclub.com/sams/shop/pr...requestid=6950

Option 1: Buy the Harbor Freight - US General version of this box

http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....re&dir=catalog

Here

http://www.harborfreight.com/56-inch...net-67681.html

28,240 cubic inches of storage from one box
Cut of ~56" of the shelf against the wall and slide it in there. I could use the top as a work bench.


Option 2: Buy two of the Harbor Freight - US General versions of this box

http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....re&dir=catalog

Here


http://www.harborfreight.com/13-draw...net-90320.html
11,500 cubic inches of space each, so only 23,000 ci of space between the two boxes. There would be more drawers though. 26 instead of 11

These side by side would take up 90". I have enough room against the wall for it, but would have to relocate my vise.

Option 3:
Buy another of the Sam's Club boxes.

All 3 options are about the same price.
The big *** 11 drawer is usually $800, on sale right now for $700, -20% is $540.
The 13 drawer roller cabinets are $370 each. minus 20% (have to find another coupon and make two purchases) would be $620.
The Sam's box is $599.

I'm leaning toward the 11 drawer.

Help.

One more option:
drive to Tyler Tx. and buy the 56" box similar to the one I've already got at the Sam's Club there.
http://www.samsclub.com/sams/shop/pr...requestid=9336
$800 though, but nice
