Cop was diggin' on the Pig, and knocked it down from 80 to 60 in a 55. $150 fine still sucks.
Route 30 is a beautiful drive on a Sunday morning.

Passed the Flight 93 Memorial on the way there; wanted to hit it on the way back, had a technology fail, turned away from GPS, went east too far north, and had to backtrack about 15 miles. I eventually made it. The crash site:

Great way to spend a Sunday!!! Thanks, Doug.
Should have waited until this Sunday and could have got some pizzas to hold you over while waiting for the ticket

Bought a set of upper control arms and tall upper ball joints from SSM's eBay store. Anybody know if I can still run 15" rims with the tall upper and lower ball joints or if I need to go bigger?

Picked up the 350/th400 combo that was in the 73 truck that I had traded my 5.3/4L60 for today, transmission stays, engine goes. Anyone need a drop in 290hp crate engine with 12K miles?

Nah, but I'll take that qjet tho for the low low price of $50. :p

How much for the engine? I've got a project that this might work in. I'm in Houston, let me know.

Depends on the width, offset, and barrel design of your current wheels.

Picked these up off Amazon. Was the same price as Summit which is a pleasant surprise especially with free shipping and no duty.

Oh yeah, bought the trunk jute that goes behind the rear seat from Mikes Montes. He was competitive on pricing, and I had ebay bucks that needed to be used so I got it for $35 to my door. Should have it today.
