A friend and co-worker of mine is taking classes at Wabanse Community College and found out they will be closed tomorrow about a hour ago. We left our store about 6pm and the drive kinda sucked for me in the Jeep driving from St.Charles to West Chicago, but driving his lowered 2wd '07 Silverado back to Virgil/Maple Park was worse. His Mom works at the Meijer across the street and left there at 8:30pm.............her drive back to their home in her ZR-2 S-Blazer apparently really sucked.

I had a couple different customers today who ended up getting texts from their kids' schools while I was helping them, sounds like some of the Chicago area schools are calling if off for cold weather..........again. I just hope we don't close early again, I can't afford to lose any more hours to this sh..........tuff.

I thought you could get that through Mopar via their own line of engine spray paints.

Ummmmmm............I would hate to change the plugs on that car, the 4 closest to the firewall looks like they would be as bad, if not worse to get at than the right bank on my 200!

Very nice looking, didn't realize Bantam was still around to be licensed through.

I like the Speedway I usualy go to, don't take the Jeep there too often, but I'll fill my 200 there unless somebody else has a better E85 spread, which almost never happens around here.

Just read he was below the legal limit for minors on the breathalizer, but the weed and pills probably should counter that........I'd hope. Also just shown in the local NBC affiliate that there are 3 Miami cops who have been suspended for giving Beiber and his bunch an unapproved police escort to a local strip club a few days prior to his arrest.

That's an Opel? COOL! Hate to say it, but I almost asked if Palmer made a mid-50's Buick at one time.............oops........

I just hope they would take him back!

I think the main one now us just the weather, so we're posting in the S-Word thread

A friend of mine is traveling through that area now, said he's seen more people spin out than he can count, even watched a Subaru Forrester land in the median after the driver lost control and couldn't collect back up.

Dad made some comment tonight that Beiber's Dad was supposedly blocking traffic on the road for those two to do their race?!

Problem is, he probably has so much BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH in his hair that you couldn't Dinozo him...........his hair would probably absorb most of the impact before your hand slid off his greasy head.

Didn't care much for their hot chocolate (don't do coffee), same with Speedways, but that BP by my store has some of the best!

Not that I've seen, or even remember. Usually it's BP, Shell, Marathon, Mobile, Speedway, Road Ranger, Thornton's, 7-11, and a handful of Citgo stores around here. Union 76 up.and left in the late 90's, the last Clark I knew of is now a BP, Phillips looks to be gone too.

Can't wait, my Jeep is getting expensive to feed, haven't even seen 14mpg out of it yet this winter! At least gas has been "cheap".........and holding at mid $3's around here...........

Still have a number of BP's here, only tend to buy from the one closest to work, mainly because they have some if the prices around. Most around here tend to be on the high side of pricing unless you're looking at E85, then you're really getting screwed, the stations that do sell it want nearly as much for that as they do regular.

My sister goes on there quite a bit.

Now that I look at that car Charlie, it could be in the process of giving it's opinion of the weather............using some not so friendly words.

Beats me, somebody posted this pic on a thread on RCCrawler dedicated to headscratchers like this........seemed appropriate here.

Be happy we don't live near you or a nice place to keep it Chuck, Dad would probably be all over that car if we were! His first car was a hand me down '50 Plymouth that he got from his mother. He and his uncle mildly customized the car and he put a good bit of work getting more power out of that Flathead I-6 too. He's said it would give some of the big Y-Block Fords a run for their money running a 1/4 mile on some if the country roads by him.........although it had to be limped or towed back to the farm for a little TLC and new rod and/or main bearing after some of those races. I think those were the races that he took down some of the Paxton equipped Fords with the car, much to the displeasure of those owners.

Please do, love the look!

Not a clue why guys, not a clue.

In all honesty, I'm impressed it looks that much like the subject matter.

Doesn't quite have the style or presence of any of the Blastoline beasties..................
