My collection of toys thus far.....
 
The way I see it, it's the best of both worlds......on-road and off. I just wish I still had my SeaDoo so that I would have water covered as well.

Whitey 07-18-2006 06:41 AM

You're right........ I'm lacking mud. Course I can't stand for things to be dirty too long. Anyway my dad started collecting neon signs years ago. He found most at flea markets and garage sales, and I've bought a few on Ebay......but I've been looking for a Corona and a Fosters sign....... I'd love to do business with you if you're willing to part with your sign. Let me know.

L8APEX 07-18-2006 06:46 AM

Thank you for the compliments. After years of working on our cars in the driveway (on a bit of an incline) my dad decided that with 3 boys and no girls......he could justify building a full-size shop. Everybody that comes over thinks that we run a business out of it.......but it's merely to work on our own stuff. I had my car up on the lift putting the MS kit on it the day after I bought it. It's great to have access to equipment like that. Anyway thanks again.....your car looks great!

Whitey 07-18-2006 07:00 AM

Swoope........ I sent you a PM. Oh and good guess!!!

ZOOMNRX8 07-18-2006 07:04 AM

you are my idol, I just need to get a ms kit on my white 8 and change my cherokee to a wrangler lifted, winched, locked.....or thats probably a CJ?

Whitey 07-18-2006 07:06 AM

Yep, it's a 72 CJ-5. It was my first vehicle that my dad bought from my grand-dad when I turned 16. There's not much of that original 72 left anymore though. My favorite modification has been the ARB air locker in the front and the Detroit Electrac locker in the rear.

ScreaminRX8 07-18-2006 08:23 AM

Love the 8 and the Jeep but don't you need a bigger dirt bike? Honda XR 100 is a little to small I would think unless you are into skidcontrol!!

Moostafa29 07-18-2006 09:35 AM

Thats a pretty cool collection. Congrats!

You're right, a 100 IS a bit small, but my neighbor made me a good deal so I bought it. It's not like I went out shopping for it. I personally think I could use a 250 but I don't ride anywhere but around my parents property and the fields behind their house, so I really can't justify buying anything else. Oh and my 100 is a good step up from the little 50cc that I still have from when I was a kid.

XDEEDUBBX 07-18-2006 10:01 AM

Wow dude, nice garage.

Tim04rx8 07-18-2006 03:59 PM

Wow... very nice garage! I wish I didn't give up all my college collection of neon signs. I had 3 different Corona signs that would have looked great in there. I bought a total of 12 neons from a local bar as it closed down. I must hunt down my old roommate and confiscate my old property!


I have yet to get on that site you gave me and order that bumper. I procrastinate very well.

NICE! But even with the Seadoo, you're still missing an airplane. :lol2:














I'm just jealous.

Don't think I haven't thought about that!.......many, many times I have thought about that! I would actually rather fly a helicopter but that'll never happen. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to be happy in the mud and in the twisties.

You still live with your parents? Keep saying your parents garage and land so just wondering how old you are. But that is probally one of the pimpest neon setups ever...also 8's looking sharp

No, I moved out of my parents house LONG ago, as did my brothers.......but since my dad built the garage we all hang out down there after work a few days a week, especially weekends. I'm 25 and everything I have, I worked for. The only thing that was ever handed to me was the Jeep, but it was my first car and was bone stock. I used my "back from Iraq" money to put $13,000 worth of mods on the Jeep and also bought the RX-8 (and mods). I'm just proud of what I've put my money into and wanted to share some pictures with you. I certainly didn't have DADDY hand it to me like some of the people on this forum. You appreciate things much more when you've worked for them. Anyway, thanks for the compliments!

Edit: Oh and Konig......stop drooling! Your car is BADASS!!!!

axsym911 07-19-2006 05:14 PM
