  1. Are you invoking Rule 34 here?!
  2. The newest reissues of the '49 Ford and Coke Machine Show Rod, plus a $30 HobbyLobby gift card from my brother in law, as well as a small pack of the Testors airbrush ready acrylic paints and non-toxic cement from a co-worker.
  3. If I was going to be that stupid, I'd be carrying my box cutter in there with me.
  4. Any info on that early jet slingshot DaddyFink?
  5. For me, something that off the wall, especially with the Arfons name painted on it too, would be a draw for me. Kinda reminds me a bit of the pulling tractors Art and daughter Dusty ran back in the 80's.
  6. Wonder how long before we see these two get the Outlaw treatment too, they seem like they could be perfect for it. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a25621700/porsche-718-boxster-cayman-t-purist/
  7. I saw a comment on an ad for the new Bumblebee movie in Instagram this morning that the commentor said that they thought wrestler John Cena would be good for the Jack Reacher roll.
  8. Don't give a rat's tookus on the drag cars, that Power Wagon though
  9. The KL is a pretty radical departure from our XJ's, but they've grown on me, in the "I could park a KL TrailHawk next to my XJ" sort of way....
  10. Well that escalated, and become timely, last I heard that joke, the guy only got a citation for possession of a firearm, not lead poisoning too.
  11. Final black friday order to arrive (also the first ordered) came today, R1 Concepts Geomet 13.39" front rotors to convert my 200 over to the bigger, Euro Market front brakes. 20181203_194617 by bjoehandley, on Flickr After this, I need front calipers, pads, hoses, and hardware, which are standard 2 piston calipers and parts used on all LX cars.
  12. I have an aunt that lives in a double wide, she and her late second husband bought it when he retired from the USPS in Sacramento and moved back to Iowa back in the 90's. It is actually pretty nice and if you were lead into the place blindfolded, you would have a difficult time telling what it is!
  13. My next Black Friday order showed up last night, now I can charge my R/C batteries without worrying about my old charger catching fire and run (lol, typed in ruin by accident) my Titan 775 swapped brushed E-Revo again too.

  14. No pics here either since I kept seeing in early evening and now there is snow on the ground, but I saw this little Porsche 356 roadster (has to be a replica in this town) a couple times before Thanksgiving that I have never seen around here before.
  15. Now I like that, then again, I'm also own a XJ and it's the last surviving one of the 5 that we've owned since '92
  16. Check my Photobucket link, if they don't show up in those pics i White plastic, then the DD truck doesn't have them. I know they fixed the driver seat, it doesn't have Mr. T, the '78-'95 bumpers and the '82-'91 grill, but can't remember on the flares, running boards, or wheels.
  17. I do like how they look, but they, like the JK and now JL Wranglers, are just too huge for my liking. As an example, here's the promo pic of one towing a Grand Wagoneer, which tends to be considered "Full Sized" and is often considered a FSJ. I do wonder how long before I see one being driven by a soccer mom with a matching purse like I saw about 10 years ago at a Subway near my former employer. A soccer mom parked her Rescue Green 4dr JK Rubi next to my XJ and when she was in line I noticed her purse was almost the exact same shade of metallic green
  18. Part of my Black Friday order came in today, radiator isolators, headlights, and wiper blades for my XJ. 20181128_220914 by bjoehandley, on Flickr
  19. Here's a link to the Photobucket album of comparing the A-Team vs Dirty Donnie Vans. http://smg.photobucket.com/user/bjoehandley/library/Plastic Models/Vans/A Team vs Dirty Donny Vans?sort=2&page=1
  20. Electricity just came back on after just over 48 hours, good thing too, ran to Portillo's to get us dinner and the 200 was showing 15 degrees on the trip
  21. The Rescue Van will also have the rear plate set into the left rear door, which was bumper mounted on the '78 and later G-Vans, if it's like the Dirty Donny Van, won't have that rear bumper or the '82-'91 GMC 2 head light grill the A-Team Van comes with either.
