Froggy and Jim, no I didn't get anything done today besides staying afloat! Man it was bad here today. Knoxville was under water. I still have to get the power steering pump on the van tomorrow and get it down to the paint shop to be painted, Econo Painting on Kingston pk $400.00 with a clear coat and a 3 yr warranty, hell yeah, I'm all about it! I'll try to get some done tomorrow. We'll see. I am still trying to buy a pipe bender and a pressure washer and a truck box. Busy busy busy!

I want a set of 38" TSLs. I'll trade up or down. I'll sell but as per forum rules I will post in the clsssifieds.




But if ya know anyone looking, I'll take $400 for just the tires.

Well thanx to Anthony @ StoneCrusher Steering, my Ex is finally back together and has 4wd. He came down and we pulled a full 12 hrs getting it back together. This Saturday, March 5th, we are having a ride at Windrock. We are honoring a great guy and someone I am proud to call my friend, Mark Rau, he is moving to Wisconsin and this will be his final ride with us for quite some time.
Mark has the narrowed EB buggy that I have posted pics of and he is also the lead fabricator at James Duff. Hate to see him leave but family issues are calling him back home. If anyone has the chance to cone up there will be some bad ass rides there.


No ad yet for the tires, too busy/lazy.
PM me for details.

Don't do it! Hate to see a perfectly good body get cut up. I know of someone that would love to have a 2nd gen B2 but cant find one for a good price.

If ya wanna cut one, get a beater.

sorry brad. chopped it tonight... i still have alot of work to do on it. i plan on making it look real smooth and also getting atleast a 4 point cage in it with a soft top for right now. It's going to be sitting in the garage for a while.

plan is finish the chop, axle swap, 4.0ohv, and some paint. It'll be atleast winter before I can wheel this thing again. sucks but I love working on it. I'll just have to sit in some passanger seats for a while. i'll get some pics up tomorrow after work of the progress so far.
