Has anybody watched this show yet? Wow some amazing toys, no pun intended.

 

I have been. Very nice toys...

 

Holy lot of money.

 

This year hoping a hail storm doesn't destroy some beautiful vehicles. Crossing fingers...

 

What the hell does this have to do with 2nd gen Tacomas? They selling some 2006's that have holes in the frame?

 

A friend is flying there this weekend to see it in person. By all indications his "advance party" is already having a blast. Will be interesting to see if they can avoid the temptation of bringing something home.

 

Can everything go in 3rd gen now ? That would be sweet

 

Wow I have never laughed so hard. You need to quit your day job and be an internet comedian.

 

I think what he's saying is we have a big off topic section

 

How do I get the thread closed or removed

 

You can just pm a mod and ask them to move it

 

Requested to have the thread moved thanks OZ-T

 

I wish they would hurry. The place is filling up fast and we need to make room for the eleventybillionth question about spacer lifts, HIDs, or fitment of 285/75 tires.

 

So can i put hid's in a stock housing if im running 285/75/16 on a spacer lift? Also has anybody heard of this plasti-dip stuff?

 

Only if you use hockey pucks as spacers

 

Anyone know who is making all of these 70s FJs? There are a bunch on the docket this year.

 

It's on my bucket list to go and buy me a 67 Nova to park next to my 11 Taco.

 

It's in the off topic subforum, Adolf.

 

Maybe these guys ( I do not watch the auction ) FJ Porn

You know, there are buys to be had . . .

So far, yesterday, I saw a mint 68 Buick GS 455 convertible sell for only $18K. It was not numbers matching and was slightly customized but I couldn't find a thing wrong with it. I'm a big block Olds 442 guy so it caught my eye and I thought it would bring 40-50K.

And, today [hey I'm a sick fuck with nothing better to do at the moment], there was a numbers matching all original 69 Torino GT Convertible, 390 4 speed, sold for only $27K.

I'm not a Ford guy but that 390 was a strong engine. Had a cousin with a hardtop version of the same car, mild cam, 750 Holley, headers, and a high 3s posi out back just ran like a futher mucker.

Now, I already know I cannot afford the 67 GTOs, 69 Z28s, 70 LS1s, etc. so I don't even bother with those. I tend to look for actual bargains of cars I certainly wouldn't mind owning and could actually buy.
