The new front rubber having a taller side wall rides so smooth.
My son and I took it out to an abandon building I have been eyeing up and got some pictures. Oh and did a few burnouts just to make sure.

Gorgeous pics. What a cool place to get some shots. Oh yes, and the artillery wheels get two thumbs up!

A week ago we went on a garage crawl. Started with breakfast and then at our leisure we checked out some of the hotrod shops around town. It was really great, almost all had a GM truck. I never knew there where that many hot rod shops close to me.

Most of the shops are family run. The first pic shows a really cool fixture to figure out wheel size and spacing.

Looks like a fun outing. That limo micro bus in the background of the last picture looks interesting...

99 to Life · 04-20-2018, 11:52 AM

thats a great idea. I have one but it just lights up

CRGRS 66 · 04-20-2018, 12:07 PM

I love the walk don't walk, that is cool. A drink don't drink light would be cool too.

Is the Camaro SS at Lowdown in Cambridge? They have a super low ceiling there...

CRGRS 66 · 04-20-2018, 12:29 PM

Looking closer, I see the rail dragster is obviously at Lowdown, where else did you go? We also have Hitman here in Cambridge.

**Dieselwrencher** · 04-20-2018, 06:56 PM

Cool light sign. Man, you have a lot of cool stuff being built near you. That bomb is pretty cool too. That limo VW looks like it took 3 or 4 of them to build it. It might need a real engine now though.

rusty76 · 04-20-2018, 08:35 PM

Cool stuff. Dig the lights.

rusty76 · 05-18-2018, 06:17 PM

It’s been like 90 here lately. Then it’s rained pretty much all week. Crazy weather.

MIKESAD50 · 05-19-2018, 12:49 PM

Wish my commute to work was that nice.

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-22-2018, 02:57 PM

Very nice! It's been in the high 80s here already and that's what the rest of our week is supposed to be. High humidity already too. Yeehaw
