Colorado B.S. Thread

Picked up my wheels from Spec Wheels in Denver yesterday. So far I'm extremely happy with their work. Tires come in Monday or Tuesday and I'll see how well they hold up to mounting. I'm almost gonna feel bad about wheeling them...almost.

 

How much did that cost? Did they do everything (prep & finish) or did you have to drop them off pre-sanded/ready to be coated?

 

$110 a wheel, $10 per center cap. They do all the prep. I wish I had before pics. These were all scratched and corroded. They look like factory new now.

 

Exterior was unharmed, Interior after ripping out wiring to the Radios and accessories the only damage was to the center console(crack on drivers side ) and a tear in the rug. Had to re-key the doors and the original ignition cylinder @ $260. Didn't get charged for the impound lot which was nice! Had to get it towed though, thanks to Mario at Villalobos Towing! Will be looking through the parts lots for a center console. If any one knows of someone parting out a 2nd gen.

 

Rotated the tires on the mini. Put them back on so that "MINI" reads right. The last guy screwed them all up.
This is why I do my own work. #attentiontodetail

 

go get a lottery ticket. you were very lucky that is all they did.

Well since I couldn't find a slide for mounting my fridge sideways I had to make one.

 

How much was it for materials for something like that? I've been thinking about building a slide for the fridge I just got.

 

Of the top of my head about $150. $70 for 20” slides and the rest was materials(2”x48” angle, (2) 1.5”x48” angle, (2) 1”x48” strap, 24”x24” 11ga sheet, and misc bolts)

Edit: might be able to get the materials a bit cheaper at a scrap yard, I just went to HD because it was convenient.

 

How many Busch Lights will that thing hold?

 

None.

 

Bunch of beer snobs up in here.

 

At least step up to the Banquet rather than the pipe flush leftovers. Or are you all about the Keys also?

 

long ago it was not unusual to purchase Blatz or Pig Eye when headed out to camp for the weekend - both way cheaper than the competition. Banquet actually taste pretty good if you don't have it too often.

 

Nah, we're just keeping your best interests in mind. Like this - I found you a new beer for summertime.

 

I got you. I work at Arapahoe and 55th

 

Naw it just once you have the good shit you don’t want to go back to the watery shit!

 

I have no issue with the Keys. And I do like the Banquet, or the Original as it is out east. Not a fan of the Coors Light though. Tastes metallic to me.

See there. This guy gets it. When in the woods or at a bar, its quantity over quality.

That is where I draw the line.

This good beer of which you speak is the great debate. Somewhere along the lines someone decided it would be cool and trendy to start making beer as hoppy as they possibly could and unfortunately all the beer snobs bought in and has continued to this day.
