No pics yet, but just bought a new 350 engine for my ongoing restoration of my "Green" (she may be partially green by the end)- "Save the planet" (hoping for 10 mpg)1984 K10. She's going to look very different at the end of this restoration.

1975 450 sl. Bought it off an older man who had it sitting in his garage for the last 15 years. Needed a new fuel pump and lines and it fired right up. The thing is in immaculate condition.

Texas card rooms have treated me well lately and I had 4% of my buddies action in the Main Event where he just cashed for $44200.
Decided to treat myself to some awesome sound.

It's a Christmas gift to myself. I'll just stare at the box for the next month then consider starting the build. Might have to build a smaller set before to get the ol' LEGO finger calluses built up (those who have built LEGO know what I'm talking about).

I bought this at the Pintastic Pinball Expo this past weekend ..... how could I not bring Godzilla home

Skyscraper building collapses, suspension bridge destroyed by Godzilla, Mechagodzilla grabs the ball for multiball, ray guns, Telsa power lines mode, battles against all your favorite monsters, a scanner that reads barcodes from your smartphone with account info (on the apron bottom right corner), wifi updates and stats, and the singing Mothra twins ... this game has it all!

So I walk into my local Guitar Center not planning on any major purchase. Unfortunately I didn't realize they had started their Black Friday sales early

 

[IaHawk]

Sold my truck to Carvana. Couldn't pass up the current prices being paid for used cars.

My neighbor is letting me borrow their extra vehicle until it comes in.

We just sold our 2019 Volkswagen Atlas for $800 more then what we paid for it 2 years ago. We typically hold onto our vehicles for 10+ years but when we could upgrade to a 2022 model for $6k more with more bells and whistles...we jumped on it. I watched our old car in their inventory and it was only on their site for 3 weeks so either someone actually bought it or they sold it to another dealership. I don't get it but we are happy with the new car.

Pretty excited about these New Balance 993 collaboration with Aime Leon Dore that just arrived.

 

[kmccormick100]

Finally took the plunge, been wanting a Taco for a long time, makes hauling the bikes and fishing kayak way more fun! Looked long and hard to find one in Lunar Rock, I love it so much.

I’m sure the truck is wonderful, but those are some serious bikes.

New as in brand new? And What do you pay for a 350 in the US ?

 

[12thMan]

Yeah those bikes are spicy. Also love lunar rock, cement was/is my favorite but lunar rock on the tacos is sick! (Says someone who went with a white 4runner lol)

It's not new- nickel 350 long block low miles, vortec heads, edelbrock intake- stripped down completely, went to the machine shop yesterdy to get"gone over"

Total cost around $3,500.00...then install it- whilst replacing everything else. Shooting for 350-450 hp when complete- depends how much $$$ I want to spend.

Got a "new" less dented passenger door, have been looking and grabbed it for $150

 

[99%evil]

Vortec heads for my 350 build... hopefully getting close to 450 hp and 35 mpg. Typo 3.5

Super fun little project for me and my 9yr old son! Painting the body next week.

A little more progress.. painted in a pearl finish, only 35 of 150 decals left to put on .

 

[K ALL IN 9]

Found this shelving unit at a yard sale for $20. My girlfriend has a keen eye for sales.

Found this nice oak poker chip case on Craigslist for $20. The chips are a definite throwaway though.

So the case I bought was filled with cheap Bicycle plastic chips. I knew they were thinner, but what I didn’t realize is that they are 38 mm instead of 39 mm.

It took a lot of hand sanding, but I was able to fit my chips - 60 per row.
