We got them at Lowes....I tried searching the Lowes website to see if they still carried the brand that we got...but was unable to find the exact cabinets.

They had the name of Coleman, but I believe they were built by O'Sullivan.

I would suggest going down to Lowes and seeing what they have. Both HomeDepot and Lowes will have the standard white cabinets. There are a couple of different companies.....I wanted something different so I went with the grey cabinets. They have another series called "Gladiator"..which has faux diamond plate...looks cool, but is way too expensive.

If you go with the basic white models....or even if you are considering them....take down your measurements for you walls. We took down measurements and found that we would be limited with the brand...one fit exactly...while they other would have left a space of about 24 inches. (their cabinets tend to be the same depth, but the width is what makes them different. Some ar 36 inches wide, while others are 48 to 72 inches wide.

Hope that helps.

found a website that sells the ones we got...just so you can see them. I think they are called the Renegade series?

I think we spent about 800 on the cabinets that we have....2 big standing ones....a lower cabinet, a lower drawers cabinet (8 pieces)...and four smaller hanging cabinets along the top.....kinda similar to the seven cabinet system in that link yuou gave.

I'm hoping to have it fixed in time for the next meet.

2008 Calendar Update

OK, here we go guys. Thread is up and we're ready to go on the development of the 2008 Meet Calendar.

TO DO LIST
1-Month selection (please post in that thread which month you would like)
2-Negatives/Positives (please post things you would like to keep, things you would like to change....or things you would like to consider)....

Loren and I will work on format/style for the calendar and will let you know when we have some samples for you guys to review and provide comments on. At this point, consider the fact that we have had two previous calendars which have used one main pic, along with 3 small pics. I would assume that we would use a similar style....so start looking for pics. I don't really care if they are new or old....lets just make them good....submit pics in the calendar thread if you have some that your already interested in having considered.
6 months have been reserved (Jedi54, Kwescott, Snowfl8k, RglBgl, Cesaralaniz, Lesper4)
additional interest shown by Scremn8, Speeddemon32, Ghost (please post in that thread which months you would like.)

Detrich, Zootender (interested ?)

This is due by November 10.....or you end up getting two months of me

Also....looking for some feedback...positives and negatives from our last two calendars. Would like to know what to keep, what to change..(ie. Large calendar format, birthday listed with the little cars, monthly meet dates logo'd/marked, mods list, personal quote, the little pictures in the lower calendar section)...one thing I have heard was that some people would like the previous and next month on the lower section of the calendar....some people use the previous and next month often at work)....

revised
8 now reserved (ZooTender and Scremn8 added their reservations for Dec and Sept respectively).

revised
Speeddemon32 reserved May (9 now reserved)

We have January, July and November available.

Ghost (what month)
Detrich (interested? if so, which month)
any ideas on who could pick up the final month?

fixing that made a big difference. my car no longer oversteers at the exit. i guess it started to come loose when i had the koni fronts. i gotta say, im loving my car

An Evo owner saying a WRX is ugly, imagine that... hmmm
I think when you buy the Evo, they make you sign a contract that you will hate WRX's and vise versa.

It's like a Mazda6 owner laughing at an Accord, you have to do it.

That looks like a cross between a lexus suv from the back and a subi front end. Ugly to say the least.
