    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.

    Your box is on its way. I threw a few extras in it. Just for fun.

    AWESOME...TKS. I actually live about 12 miles from the Austin Tesla plant they built....and they are still working on it. I drive by it daily going to work. It takes about 45 seconds going 80mph (toll) from one end to the other!

    I hit the HEB on the way to work this morning....getting some treats for co-workers....looked at the toys of course and even though it was 7AM, nothing but scraps and opened containers.

    As far as the MOPARS, I only collected them years ago and now I collect what makes me smile.

    Mopar of anything still makes me smile...I did own a real 71 Dart Swinger (slant 6) and a (everything taken off the car for resto) 1968 Charger but all that was sold when I moved around different duty stations/overseas while in the Navy. I still have my 2001 Sportster though that I brought new in Okinawa Japan...it's parked in the garage. Have a good hump day!

    68 Charger!! I love the look of the 68,69, and the 70 but because of the round taillights I love the 68 the best!

    Mostly stock, just getting it to my liking, just happy to have had the taco and now my 4Runner.
    I actually just found one of this maker with a purple Datsun 240z.

    Thought they had stopped making the muscle machines but starting to see them again. Comes with a stand too. Does that have a year on it? I don’t really collect them so probably will end up selling all of them.

    Yep, the rear end and front grilles are different...here is a pic of front and back for those who don't know.
    Front (top=1968) (middle=1969) my favorite and (last car=1970)
