Cool cars and CLC chat

Saw a couple at a truck stop a few years ago on a trip to Moab. Wanted one ever since.

When they get cleared to sell them, I will try to let you know.

I'm in Jackson this week on business and my phone was blowing up this morning. sounds like the kid was sick and she was getting medicine at kroger and I guess she had no one to watch him. just horrible.

Fairly nice size rear sprocket on that dude. That alone should up the pulling power a bit - let alone hooking a diesel to it!

The word on the street is that she had been to a bar (MBar) and was stopping by Kroger on the way home. She was supposedly drunk when the police arrived to investigate the car theft. I think there is a lot more to this story than mainstream media is reporting. As well they located two suspects very quickly.

In that case, did she pick the kid up from a baby sitter? Why was the kid in the car? If this is indeed true then she needs to be arrested as well.

He said it would pull a stump out if you could keep the wheels on the ground. Heavy as and slow as molasses but pulls like a team of mules in cleats.

So you're saying you could armor it up and it wouldn't bat an eye... perfect 'poxyclyps moto.

Yep, but if it ever fell over you'd have to break out the highlift to stand it back up...

you've been warned.... if you take LC butchery personal; dont go in here
There is simply too much wrong to even find a place to begin but traction bar on springs, beam axle, land rover vents are a decent start

Cameron Crowe on the 'Singles' Soundtrack, His Ultimate Seattle Mixtape

Really good history in this article...seems surreal to me that this interview was from just a few days ago.

 

[BMThiker]

I remember reading an article in RS by Crowe right as the movie was coming out and it was a really good article...wonder if they have an online archive going back that far?
