New England B.S. Thread

Something showed up on my door a month and a half earlier than expected...

 

ERHMAGERD! DANSZUN!!!

The idiot even took a picture of the emblem and he still spelled it wrong. Twice.

 

So sweet

 

Is it installed yet?

 

Almost. I got it all out of the box! That's a start right.

 

So clean. So pretty. So perfect. I think my panties need changing.

 

Nice Fran !

 

I'm absolutely terrified to think how much bondo is in that "Z280". I'm just looking at all the crazing on the paint. I am shocked he isn't trading for a Camero. (shakes head)

My good friend had a 1976 in high school. It sat in his parent's back yard for maybe 3 months before we gave up on it. Every panel in front of the doors was basically missing and I'm not particularly confident the unibody was stable.

Great looking car though.

 

My guess is it wasn't. Had an '81 right after high school, the frame and floors were gone.

 

I've heard the Z series Datsuns and Nissans are good for seriously rotting out.

 

Anybody ever heard of this place? http://www.archiesoffroad.com/

 

Made this brush guard for a friend.

 

Nice people. They're very friendly and helpful folks. They've done a couple of seriously cool builds for people. They mostly deal with full-sized American trucks, but they've done their fair share of other stuff.

They buy rubber from us on a semi-regular basis; Julie who works there is a real sweetheart.

The brush guard looks pretty sweet, but...on a Grand Cherokee of that vintage? Why?

 

Rob, very nice folks.....ENH'rs use them steadily and they are Sponsors again.....Truth is in their pix....GM, Ford and Toyotas ;across the make....FJ's,Cruisers and Tacos....even Tundras

BBear uses them and lives very close to the SHOP.....if you need a personal view...

 

Yup! Almost stopped there last year en route to all wheels

 

Love 'em. Done a lot of business there. Can't wait to go visit again!

They're garnering a positive reputation and picking up in sales. Don't think you'd prefer them over your current setup though.

 

Yea I was thinking of their leaf pack for my truck since they're so affordable. I just don't know how I want to proceed since I shelled out for the ATO shackle flips and the set I have is designed for the Toyota factory spring specs. I'm wondering if OMD would be my best bet to improve my SAS (saggy ass syndrome) and still fit into my current configuration with the ATO flips.

 

You're guess is as good as mine... But it's what he wanted so that's what I built haha
