The Lair

I had never seen one like it before. One night I stumbled across it back by the lumber and trim section on clearance and pretty beat up. Debated getting it for a few days and called around ended up finding one still in the box at a store 45 minutes away, but still clearance priced. So I ran and snagged it!

 

That looks so nice! You scored one hell of a deal! Its a winner for sure buddy

I so so want. I have a little craftman that has served me well.

 

@Bocsy44 go get your at Costco! Or the smaller one half price of the bigger one!

 

so much want in one picture haha but I have no room for one of those right now! I need a bigger garage, and one that doesn't flood all in due time, couple more years and I should have enough for a down payment, just need to tighten up the budget, less truck parts and more debt payments haha

 

Ran into this guy at a local bbq joint. Had a chance to talk to him about the EST Lair. Told him I would talk to @EatSleepTacos about making him an honorary member of The Lair.

 

As I said to my wife the night I proposed, "Nice box, can I keep it?"

 

To me Elvis is always welcome.

This is my small contribution to the tool box pic thread

 

I have that same box, sans boots.

 

No problem man! I had a lot of fun and glad we could get you a deal. I'm also extremely thankful for you passing along your old toolbox! It surprisingly wasn't too bad getting it inside with the help of my wife.

 

You have the same boots!?! We are twining x 2

You made out like an EST bandit. That is a nice box you got your paws on buddy.

 

You'll reach your goal my friend!

A tool box is a tool box , the size doesn't matter!!

 

No kidding! I think it was gifted to David, so he was just passing it along. When the time comes, I'll be sure to do the same. It's super old, but works great! It's HEAVY too, so I don't think it's breaking any time soon.

 

Tomorrow afternoon, I'm going to go get my Demello bumper!! The guy has a black truck and isn't getting his new plastic bumper for a month, so instead of paying $750, I offered to just trade bumpers and I pay him $700. That way he's not driving around bare bones. He's nice enough to help me with the bumper install as well, so it should be a quick parking lot swap! Here's what it looks like (pic from demellos website) but also has round LED fogs and a 30" LED bar under the hoop.

 

Man, what a find.

 

No kidding! This bumper new, with powder coat is $1380+shipping. I would never get powder coat on my armor, but since it's already got it I might as well go with it. If I ever feel so inclined I'll get it sand blasted and repaint it myself.

 

Congrats on the deal!!

 

Thanks! You have no idea how excited I am. I've been wanting a plate bumper since I got Stewie, and it's finally happening.

 

That bumper has always been at the top of my list for bumpers. Great find but I dont think it will fit your truck, being the friend I am, I will take it off your hands.

 

We love EST Grandma! RIP
