  1. That is funny oh and 2 cars one pic same angle..btw i miss my rat rod chevette.
  2. we went through that zoneing crap, we don't have to keep them covered but in louisville your not allowed to work on your car more than a day, since you can not have a vehicle that doesnt run sitting in your driveway. my old camaro sat for 6months and we had no problems the day after i put it on jacks. we had a complaint letter. thats why we moved to a place with farther out with 6acres, as a perk my only real neighbor is a car nut too. now i have non running(79 camaro 77 corvette 68 chevy c10 and a 88 VW) and they can do nothing hahaha i love it.

    top 5 bands

    #1 METALLICA (loved them since i was 5 years old) #2 Lamb of God #3 Pantera #4 The human abstract/Protest the hero/Between the buried and me #5 Black Dahlia Murder i put 4 bands as number 4 b.c they are all prog metal type bands and only have a cd each, since they are all fairly new to major labels. i could probably write 10 more top five for my favorite genres of metal/hard rock and probably 10 more for other music that i like like blues and classic rock and all that stuff. Music is what i do, its what i go to school for and how i spend my free time. its good stuff.
  4. yea gmail is awesome, right now i have 2800mb of storage. but my favorite aspect is you can send 10mb attachments to emails so you can transfer songs back and forth or anything really. worked really well when i was doing the game developement thing. made sending weapon renders easily.
  5. i prefer black man thongs hah. but on the comanches i like my white one, since most of my cars have been white, its grown on me. but if i were to repaint it i would go with the newer really bright green.
  6. pm me your email address and ill send you one, i didnt realize gmail was still invite but i have 100 or 99 left so anyone that needs one i have it.
  7. i wish i would have known that when i replaced my fuse box i just cut all the wires and re soldered them
  8. I'm not getting mine until my family gets back from chicago, with the moneys from my grandparents who live up there. but when they get back my gift will be a semi auto AK-47 with a red dot scope. and I'm geting a line 6 PC recording setup for my guitar. i also got the gift of 5hours work from UPS, i work there, but at triple time so it was real easy to get me to come in.
  9. looks like its taller than the comanche, your going to need to do something about that. very nice ride.
  10. another mirror option, and the one i was going to go with, is off of Camaros and firebirds 93+ they have 2 quite nice map lights with a switch for each side, and the same 3 wire connector and if you want to get really fancy you can do this http://www.lastofthebreed.com/Installs/ ... Lights.htm i did it to my last 94 camaro and it was amazing the amount of light the leds produced. i could cast a shadow in the middle of the day. it was great at nite, tho you kinda had to squint until you got used to the light, once they were turned on.
  11. id check with your local exhaust shops. There is a place here in town with a mandrel bender, that will just make up an exhaust, any way you want. might be your only real option.
  12. i got a buddy with a 2door Xj on 26s with lambo doors, caddy blue marble paint job with a ton of flake. Best part is, he does his own painting so when winter time comes around the 30s come out and we go muddin and play in the snow, in a show truck, its great. here's some older pics pre new wheels. gotta love the shot of our awesome city in the background you can kinda see the marble in this shot he still knows its a jeep tho
  13. I'm planning on running the miladon(sp?) 4 bolt conversion caps from what i hear they are stronger than a factory 4. radiator in the bed sounds good heh isnt that how the baja kids do it.
  14. I love the look, i was thinking of going that amount of lift with 33s. But I like the full wheel well look and didnt want to cut the fenders back as most do. I'm glad they seem to stuff up in there and look bad @$$ at the same time. Nice Jeep.
  15. I just thought since you have a really clean shaved look going. It might be cool to take out the side plastic behind the door cover the hole with some metal and pop some classic louvers in its place. Then pinstripe or paint the shape of the plastic area. follow.... So it would look like it was still there but painted instead of raised plastic, would be super slick, yet keep the unique design feature of the truck. Shaving the drip rail would clean the look alot too. I'm a rat rodder at heart but have a few show tricks in my book. Just a thought.
  16. the motor i have laying in my yard on a pallet is a run of the mill pre emissions(~1970) 350 2 bolt main, its going to need to be bored so i know it will get punched .030 over. i was thinking i might stroke if the crank looks as bad as the old cam did, but then i would also need a new biggger cam than the one ive got in the boxes now. I thought about doing a Stroked 4.0 it would be another engine to add to my belt. Ive done 3 SBCs already and I'm only 20, so they are what I'm really used to. As far as upgrades, what do you mean. I'm guessing the dana35 couldnt handle the power? i was planning a ford 8.8 anyways if i do indeed need to lift it i would just spring over it and swap the 8.8 then, i can get them at my local yard for $60. would a 231/ax15 handle it, ive been piecing the parts for that already as well This is starting to become more expensive the more i think about it, heh. the motor will be built regardless for my camaro, i was thinking when i get tired of it in there, and want to step to the 500range the weakling might be nice in the jeep. you should see my parts shed tho, i could build a few cars with the stuff i have in there.
  17. My 4.0 has 201k on it and is running a bit rough so Ive been looking into swaps. I considered a small block chevy, b.c I have a rebuild lined up(couple thousand dollars worth of parts in boxes) good for about a 350hp(crank) motor, that I was going to put in my Camaro, but Ive decided to go fuel injected with that car. Here is my question I was looking at advance adapters SBC engine mounts and it says you need a 3inch lift to do the swap. Why is this? Is it an oil pan clearance issue or what? I was hoping to only lift my truck 2inches, would that clear or am I going to have to break down and get a lift kit first. I'm starting to think this is more work than its worth and I may just build another 4.0. I am a chevy guy so I have tons of parts laying around to keep it maintained. That is my primary reason for considering the v8. Having two engines worth of parts is comforting. Thanks in advance for anyhelp.
  18. I'm really hoping you forgot a decimal point in that b.c 2.9million km would have to be some sort of record
  19. impressive, mine is all original with 201k and i have a ba-10 and its still alive, for the most part. i personally think that is the most amazing of all of it.
  20. heh i was watching that video and, was thinking damn that thing sounds good, it sounds just like a small block chevy, then i looked at your sig. heh. nice truck.
  21. i too use the elbow, in all my cars i use my knee but its not very comfortable to get my knee up to the wheel in the jeep.
  22. i voted AZ on your list b.c i love the idea of no winter, i hate it when it gets less than 40. and snow makes me mad. But you should move to Kentucky, its not all rednecks and inbreeds like everyone says, they are talking about Alabama ;) jk. This state is beautiful its so green, we have trees everywhere, if you have allergies its not the best place to be, but outside the louisville/ohio valley area its wonderful air. I will die in this state, i love it here.
  23. wow sounds like a deal :shake:
  24. i don't really consider lamb of god or mastadon metalcore. when i think metalcore bands like sworn enemy and hatebreed come to mind. true fusions of eastcoast/westcoast hardcore with a more metal root. lamb of god is straight metal in my opinion. mastadon more of an experimental metal. just b.c i can think of no other real category for them.
  25. i finished my custom, with the lights.
