now... if a boss does shows up somewhere, i'm going to have a hell of a time not buying it.

If you want to check it out some time let me know.

I think it will still be very doable after long tubes as well without being overky loud.

been hearing good things about corsa for these cars. i'm hoping to find some used exhaust, headers back. my goal for "some point" is 500rwhp with a "cam only" set up... whatever that means, lol. no f/i for this guy

thanks! i knew you'd be excited! I'll have to get more pics tomorrow i think. busy day at work today and becky gets the car this evening b/c i have to pick up logan. so probably tomorrow when i get home.

car is still up on their website though http://www.laffertychevy.com/Vehicle...-PA/1702875163

would've loved to get a GS, but i wanted the newest i could find and a GS would've been out of my price range as an ls3 i think. that and i didn't feel like playing the waiting game

So the kids are smart enough to isolate the ethyl alcohol in the sanitizer but not smart enough to use common sense and realize aside from getting drunk it will probally make them sick too.

At first I was proud of the kids for using their heads to get drunk... but I realized if they are this smart, why not just make your own moonshine?

I'm a contractor Rep. (Sales) for a Distributor in Bucks Co. that has a Mill with unlimited capabilities on site. I got nothing completed either, yet, mostly napkin drawings and materials put aside.. Prob. won't get to anything till fall though with how busy things have gotten.

Got a welder? If so weld me up a coffee table frame, I'll pay you in materials

grimm · 04-25-2012, 10:27 PM

my father in law is going to teach me how to weld. He is going to help me build a brewstand,

this is an all 1.5" square tube steel design, I'm working on value engineering it to save some cash in materials. using 1.5" square tube steel for the frame and 1" for the interior supports and cross members. So far i've added features such as telescoping legs and saved around $50. I love autocad.

Finding a good grill is tough. I really want to spend the extra money on a Weber, but I just can't force myself too.

grimm · 04-26-2012, 08:58 AM

you either have to accept you will need to replace it in 2-4 years or buy a weber that will last 10+
thats the battle i had going thru my mind.

I need fast in my life.

HickRocket1258 · 04-26-2012, 10:29 AM

Grimm, I was looking at the e-210 and e-310 and the cooking space doesn't seem quite as big as some of the other grills out there.

**Big_Jim** · 04-26-2012, 10:51 AM

Drove the bronco to work today. Forgot how much I enjoyed driving that thing.

"I see the new store is open."
Me "No it isn't."
"But I saw cars there and people."
Me "The road isn't even finished yet. Those are called construction workers." :turns and walks away:
