Hopefully its larger than the last shop. Its been a while but all I remember is too many cars and not enough floor/lift space!

Congrats.

Ya, it's mine. I frig'n love my truck. I think the best thing is the kleinn train horn I have on it. I scared the **** out of a crow on monday. It flew over to my truck and landed right next to it on the ground to eat something. It almost fell over when I honked my horn because it got so scared.

Here's a video of a jeep with one.

I didn't get mine from horn blasters. I got it from 4 wheel parts in Santa Anna. They were having a 20% off sale. You Also need an air tank and compresser to make it work.

Thanks again Ryne and Mike for taking a look at my heap... I've got a feeling that clutch swap we mentioned will be coming fairly soon. One of you guys PM me with a quote for what we talked about if you don't mind.

What did that SC'ed goat end up putting down?

Next time I'm over I'll bring my camera and take some pics of the place...

I'm still sayin that Miata would be SICK with some LSX power under the hood... ya know, since selling the purple formula, I think the miata should be the new CMS Shop Car

Mike has a point with the Miata though, an LS1 would make it pretty heavy up front for how small the car is. I do agree it would be bad *** to see.

I think Ryne would sooner cruise around in an LSx Ford Fiesta than to make the Miata his shop car
