  1. Wonder if the owner is any relation to the guy that has the 4/1 scale Power Wagon and Jeep "motorhomes", should be around the right part of the world.
  2. I think those are lines to air the tires up and down on the roll, kinda like the HUMVEE's had
  3. Looks like it has a 4dr JK Wrangler tub.........and then things went further downhill from there
  4. I'd have a hard time even spending a Grand on a television if I had a mint in the bank, screw payin' $4 mil on that!
  5. Looks way better topless! Too bad it still have Camaro tail lights................
  6. I thought I read some years back in SAE.....before they became "that other forum" that these were promotional items sent out to reviewers, theaters, and such to push the movie. About the only thing the kits had in common was the lid, instructions, and that there was a car in the box.
  7. Beautiful build Pete!
  8. That wouldn't surprise me Had a customer who made a good point back when she was just running Indy Cars or just getting into NASCAR. At the time Robby Gordon was cryin' about her being so much lighter than other, larger, male drivers like himself. Well, this lady pointed out that while yes, Danica Patric is lighter than than most of the male racers, she doesn't have the strength to man handle a car like, say, Robby Gordon does Wouldn't matter which series either, Stock Cars are over 3000 pounds and while Indy Cars are much lighter while sitting still, all those down force generators do add weight to the cars once up to speed and will make them harder to steer. SO yes, her being lighter does have an advantage in vehicle weight, but also can work against her when it comes to body strength in controlling said vehicle.
  9. Don't know about a cut and paste, looks too well done to just be slapped together........too bad they didn't put that work into making it look good......... Eh, considering those things fold like a taco during crash testing, probably would be best to just crush it and put it down and not risk injuring yourself
  10. Wonder what chemicals were used during the design this one and if they were either potent enough or too potent! And I thought that GL nosed super stretched Excursion was bad.
  11. Spewed the Dew eh? :p :p
  12. Looks like I'm not the only one who didn't like the new version a couple months back! Looks like I may have to change back then and see if it's better!
  13. That could depend on the chemicals used during the design process............
  14. Wrap a GMC cargo van around it?!
  15. We got lucky with that storm, we hadn't moved to the area from Iowa untill the following November!
  16. Looks real, can't wait to hear the history behind this one!
  17. I finally got onto a Live Gold account and started taking pictures on Forza Horizon. BJoe76's Gallery
  18. Amazing build!
  19. Had drywall strapped to the roof of mine, seen Dad's two Jeeps carry more weight than the employer owned F-150 he now has.
  20. Depends, one of the four Cherokee's we had was registered as a "Carry All" (what that is supposed to me, I think mine is a "Station Wagon ) here in Illinois, but using what they're registered as would also make Suburbans, Excursions, Blazers, Broncos, ect cars as well
  21. Jeeps always have been trucks.......well, until the Compass and Patriot came to be
  22. That's one fine looking 409 you built there Carl
  23. That is incredibly cool! Dad and I were both surprised that the only GT40 body part was the front half of the greenhouse too! BTW, have you seen this? http://www.google.com/search?q=mid+motor+Mach+40&hl=en&tbo=d&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=1y8KUcbDGtKTqwGM84DQBA&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAA&biw=1360&bih=546
