All set up! Thanks to Heath for the muscle! Hope you run what you want tonight buddy.



It'll take me a month to get everything in a spot that makes sense, then another month for me to learn where everything is. After that it'll be perfect! I'm not making labels until everything is in it's permanent spot. I have a feeling I'll be moving things around for a while.

That's ~8'2" worth of stainless happiness!
Eight feet, two inches!
Honestly, it's bigger than I thought it would be.

That Volvo badge is pretty awesome Steve!

I was up late last night, and up early this morning putting tools in their new homes. Once everything is nice I'll take pictures (mainly for insurance purposes) and post them.

I had to take out one of my shelves in order to make room for it. Now I'm consolidating all the crap that was spread out on 5 shelves onto 4 shelves.

I'm going to sell off some small boxes soon or give them to young/inexperienced family members.
Keeping the boxes full of drill bits and the box of nuts/bolts.

Main goal is to get rid of the "Sanford and Son" look.

Find of the day



I also saw not one but two dodge stealth's for the first time ever in person today, in two totally seperate and unrelated locations. One looks like it was just off the showroom floor and the other was tastefully riced out.

I believe so, I dunno if it's TT though. I remember this old episode of the wheel of fortune, and a 92 or 94 Stealth was a prize, except they called it a "sports car". I got a laugh out of that one.

I believe TT was an option. Same engine as the 3000gt I believe. I rode in one once. Their pretty quick. AWD is nice too. They tend to be awful for breaking down and there is no aftermarket for them. I believe they put down close to 300hp.

That's what I've heard too, if a transmission goes out, it'll cost more than the whole car.

Your gonna love that cam Steve!

Chad & Clint, sorry I didn't get back to yall on the pistol. It sold pretty much right after I posted it.

Over the weekend, I had a quick reminder of just how fast my car would knock down the speedo. Wasn't scary, but shocked when I looked down and realized it. Was expecting to see 135ish, but instead I saw the needle dang near pegged. Hell of alot of fun no doubt!! Can't say why or where I was doing it though
