    My 2006 2500 duramax. I drive it 45 miles each way to work everyday. It used to be my toy but too easy to dump money on. [​IMG]. [​IMG]

    Here are the two project vehicles. The Blue one is pretty much a bone stock '62 CJ-5 (anybody have a F-134 engine that the don't want??) with a seized engine and the mulit-colored one is my Frankenjeep. Mid '50's .mil frame (same size as the '62), the purple tub is a '49 CJ-3A, the red front clip is from a '47 CJ-2A, it has a '77 Buick V-6 in the frame rails, mated to the stock T90 trans/Dana18 X-fer case, PTO and Warn OD all stacked on it. A 2" suspension and a 2" body lift. It did have a set of 33x12.50's under it to see if they would fit. I also have the matching PTO driven winch for the front end... as long as the engine stays running the weak part is the u-joints and/or driveshaft from the PTO to the winch!

    No pics but I guess my favorite would have been my first car-a '64 Corvair convertible. It was the car I learned to drive on and I remember some fun times with that vehicle, 'course I was MUCH younger then. Wish I still had that car!

    One of my trucks was a 1976 Ford pickup with a utility body. It had a 360 engine and got around 8 mpg. I didn't care back then because gas was around $1.20 a gallon. Now it's $4-5 where I live.
