mike...that looks very cool!!

I will be leaving for china in the am...all those hrs on the plane will be a hoot

i'll be around more when things settle down...thats when the kids are 18 right?

Safe travels with the family Johnny. Things don't quiet down when they're 18.................. when they do that's when you really need to worry.

Happy first day of Spring!!!

Were you on a road trip? I know in Northern Az we got about two feet of snow over the weekend. No way RI looks like that on the first day of spring.

Isn't that the truth. When the youngest turned eighteen I still had hair. Ten years later and I;m almost bald

Have a safe trip Johnny. Besides just getting a new daughter I hope you get a chance to enjoy the adventure.

Weather was crazy last weekend. 70 and 80 in the northeast and in Phoenix a couple of days we didn't even reach 60. I know a lot of poeple who flew in to see spring training weren't happy with the temperatures and the delays for rain and hail storms. Lucky this time it wasn't as bad as we had a year and half ago plus all the vehicles were tucked safe away in a garage.

Update on my grill. Bars i switched from round steel tube to the. California closet, closet hanging bars, looks much better

 

[Cruiser_Nerd]

Looks better Jason, what did you end up using for headlight rings?

 

[fogblanket]

thanks Jim I used the jeep ones form JC whitney the ones I showed you at FG. took some customizing had to put some stronger springs on the head lights to keep them in place due to the surronds really hugging the headlights.

very cool, do you have any plans on adding a wire to your bib lights and removing the fender signals?

X3 Happy Easter everybody.

Glad your back Johnny. I find it interesting Mud is block in China. Were they really Prado's or a Chinese rip off. I remember the 100 series being copied in China. May be the reason they blocked mud

 

[JohnnyC]

real prado...it was amazing to see just about 95% of all cars driving in the 2000+ year range...with most being from 07 and newer in the areas that i was in

you either drive a nice car...or...moped...or...cheapo bike stuff

i saw a few nissan pathfinder copies and a few highlander copies...and several other odd ball cars...like citrones and russian cars...saw some nice toyota crowns as well

 

[Cruiser_Nerd]

Happy Easter everyone. Hope you all got to sped some time with the family.

 

[JohnnyC]

time with the now bigger family went well enough for Easter LOL

Jim did you know that MG's were still being made? I come to find out that when rover was sold the MG brand went over to china...I saw a few MG's when we were there...probably should have taken pictures of them...kinda neat to see...however they were nowhere near the coolness of what they once were

 

[Cruiser_Nerd]

I did hear something about the MG's.....................just haven't seen anything. What do they look like? Did they just use the name and slap it on something small?

Well since only a select few "normal" cruiserheads seem to care in the Northeast and I can't cage my excitement I thought I'd share with the "wierdos" like me...
