  1. Great 'stang kro10000! It looks very nasty in the dark and you have good plan.. And other ones you have nice project-cars!!! :brows: I have a coffesion to make.. it's also FoMoCo in my garage! :dunno: It's only -72 Comet: four doors, original V8-block+c4+8" and bucket seats. It was import to Finland in 1973 (by Doctor-lady) and was driven on street until 1989. I have been owner about 10years and I've beeen slooow... It should be daily driven (in this spring) so there is only little modifications: new paint, quite a lot welding, original gears (< 3.00), shift-kit in trans, douple exhaust+headers, four barrel carb+Edel's intake, Comp's cam, 302 overbored to 306cid, hypereutectic-pistons and floor shifter etc. Tires and wheels are still same from 80's when my friend left it on his backyard... sorry about that! :rotf:
  2. You are talking to dogfood!!
  3. Congratulations Canada!! Great final game. You were better... and USA too! But Finland is also happy about our pronze medal!! :clapping:
  4. Mistakes hapens! :yes: And one thing Lenard: In Europe we haven't use volt/amp-gause after 70's. Only exception is England, because they have Lucas electrical system on their cars... ;) So there is no stock volt gauge!
  5. Only with turbo boost button (option)...
  6. Joop, do you mean this one? These are from spring 2008. They just keep funny... My friend is the owner of 3th one on the left.
  7. Yes, awesome pics. I love those great mountains, water falls, red rocks, salt lakes, etc. what we haven't here! I could spend weeks in those places with my camera :brows: Pete M's MJ and dog are wonderful!! :yes: When I took that cabin-pic there were clear sky, -25celsius temperature and full moon in middle of night... Great moment!! And more: Typical drifting car What..? :ack: But f*king fast! My cabin in Lapland (quite near by Santa's home) I met the Zombie on the river... :beerhead: Ready to race
  8. Thanks guys! Maybe diesel is a little bit doggy, but I have get a long. And 4.11 gears and five-speed manual helps.... And of course it much cheaper to drive daily and works very well. Maybe 4.0 will be next engine (XJs with engine are cheap to buy) if this diesel blow up in some day! MJs were import about 50pcs to Finland in end of 80's (and later some private import MJs). It's not very common :D, but I know couple owners in near by.

  10. Old topic, but let's update it... I'm also amature photographer. Ten years I have only used digital cam (4th) and before that kino-SLRs. Nice hobby and you have great pics! :chillin: "Siberian Jay" "...some kind a dog....WHIPPET!!"

  11. You notice my licence plates... :nuts: They are not custom ordered. Here in Finland they give allways plates which represent owner the best..... :shake:
  12. Thanks all! Like freakjeep said tires are same pattern as geolanders. But my tires are 30x9.5 INSA TURBO SAHARA. I like these tires. original engine compartment: renault 2.1 diesel with turbo+intercooler Instrument cluster:
  13. Hello! And here is new member(s) to this club! Me and my long bed Comanche 4x4 with 2.1td and manual. I've own it for two years and it's daily driven (273000km=170000mls). There is NON-c-clip D35 with Detroit soft-locker in rear. Here some pics: :cheers:
