glad to hear it was merely a minor inconvenience and nothing worse.

I put my new truck to work right away. if you're going to be occupying most of the free space in the barn while I'm out of town, then you're now a giant shelf.

be sure to start a build thread to document the fun

you should probably start a tech thread

looks fantastic! you definitely put forth the extra effort and it shows.

There is only one Lemmy. only so much they could do.

although I'm a little torn since the other bots are actually playing the music, but he, um, doesn't have lungs or vocal cords so is he really... singing? Either way it's fantastic to have the lyrics in the videos now. (plus a giant robotic lead singer is just plain awesome) I would totally go see a concert. Do you think they sign autographs after the show?

yes. hopefully he doesn't stage-dive and crush the audience another video showing some closeups

no pics since it'll just be a bunch of big plastic totes in the shed, but I now own the entire engine bay's guts from a CRD libby (plus a front driveshaft). Previous owner had a coolant leak that ended up toasting piston 2, took it all apart, and then got overwhelmed by the cost of fixing it. So I swooped in and snatched it up for cheap. block, wire harness and everything. There are no plans for it aside from transporting to GA to wait around til I need spares in my Libby, buuuuuut, I made sure to get it all just in case there's an MJ transplant in the future.

with all of the above

I will if I can.

do you have a picture that's has more space around the grille?

pic of what you've got? I'm a long way away from my stuff at the moment to check.

sorta. it's in black and white, it's not a side view, and I think he's looking for a slightly different paint scheme.

if you insert it into this thread I'll take care of the rest when I get back to the house.

I imagine that will be in the future.

so I can't replace the fuel filter? just one more reason why modern cars suck to work on.

you know it will. maybe stuff from the last 10 years thrown in too. and sold in a gold-lined diamond box.

epic. just epic. They deserve all the money they make for bringing us along on that journey. so far I've only seen it with and then talked to people that know a thing or 2 about comics (I myself was never a comic book reader, but I've got friends that are and so I can stay in teh loop enough to get references and such) so the real test will come in a couple weeks when I get back to GA and take my folks to it. They've seen a most of the key movies in this MCU but it's just not their cup of tea so "fan service" moments tend to be lost on them. It'll be a great indicator of how well the movie holds up as *a movie*. whew. what a ride.

my sub was more than enough that I didn't notice their absence. ymmv

can you find a quality 80s dakota bumper?

now THAT'S a 300 dollar tailgate I need to rent that from you so it can hang on my wall.

I had incredible quality success with an expensivey 8" sub and components in the doors with the aim-able tweeters popped in right above the 5.25s. everything was super amped (can't quite recall the rms numbers) and the sound was like you were in the hall with the orchestra. originally I also had 6x9s in little boxes in the back corners but they added very little so I pulled them out. eventually I pulled the amps/sub and tried to replicate it in my dakota and it just wasn't the same.
