So who thinks Mike needs a trailer for his 90? It seems he breaks stuff on the road and not the trail. :grin

I need a trailer for spare parts! Any parts you want to donate send them over, so far I have axle shafts and CVs front and rear, a couple busted thirds, a second radiator, some AC parts and a large selection of oddball bolts and things that were left over from various jobs.
Moving post to chit chat, I think it will be more fitting their.

Funny, I watched some challenge event on TLC (junyard wars I think it was), staged out in CA. The teams were given a vehicle and had to drive to different junkyards, along the way, modifying the vehicle for the different challenges (river crossing, trail driving, dune jumping). All the vehciles had trailers full of whatever crap they could scavenge at the junk yard, then take to the corresponding challenge to modify their vehicle to make it.
I think that race is perfect for you Mike. :)

During the original British Junkyard Wars, they would always use scrapped Land Rovers as base vehicles.

I think the pink caddy loses to the farm boys in their Ford truck... :angry
I would have liked the caddy to win.
