um excuse me posted:I'm sure this will hold up to highway scrutiny It probably will since those eclipses also have a bolt that is in the far edges of the bumper cover going into a captive nut in the fender that is perfectly capable of supporting the bumper by themselves. They still shoulda used zip ties like I did to hold my buddy's on.

Human Grand Prix posted:The B20A? I had one of those too. It isn't related to the later B-series engines despite it's name - it's incredibly confusing. Lol, that's the one. Everyone I knew at the time was like "dude just LSV" and then I'd have to get into a 25 minute discussion of why its not that easy. They do have a kit to put a traditional B series in a 3rd gen now but its pricey.

Humphreys posted:My local wreckers have a thing every month where you pay $30 and bring your own tools. You can grab any and all parts you want as long as you can carry it out the door physically. Every time it comes up - I grab 3 friends, we each bee-line to parts we want and rip that poo poo out, then pile them onto a bonnet/hood and we each grab a corner and walk out. Many good engines were had. One of the yards I frequent used to do this, but they made you carry it through their "people" gate. Saw a guy manage to wiggle a pickup bed through it by being inside the bed and picking it up by the forward bulkhead. Last time I did it, they gave me poo poo about tying a bunch of fans and poo poo together with a seatbelt ("no straps or chains") but I actually needed the seatbelt, so I got away with it. I could have carried all the crap anyway.

It's kinda fun thinking of the best way to carry the most stuff out in one go without going outside their rules. Some people were throwing parts over the back fence to a buddy so they could carry more. Things tended to get hectic like a black friday sale. Our wrecker has a website with a weekly update listing including photos of all the car bodies they have in stock. Even if it has the engine still.

OK, this poo poo has just got to stop. (actually, I find this one funny, because I think he's trolling. Note the lack of chrome.)

Not a car exactly, but did you know that once upon a time you could buy fireworks specifically designed to be hidden in your friends car & ignited by the spark plugs? Well, apparently they're still being sold some Daytona fireworks store posted:Auto Foolers were first invented before 1941 and were available until 1990 or so. It has finally been reintroduced after an long period of engineering that would satisfy the D. O. T. and the C. P. S. C. the NEW Auto Fooler is once again available

And yeah, you can download it as semi-abandon-ware. I guess it's not really anymore, though. I researched it and got everything together but never actually played once I did.

Trailer still has him, sounds like.

They didn't go far enough. Some more bodywork, chrome, multicolored lights and we'd have ourselves a Dekotora SUV.

The rear end I don't mind too much, the fender flares I could do without But it's the huge gaping front grille that is just dreadful And it makes an already rather large and boxy vehicle look slightly less boxy , so I guess that's a good thing ?

This just looks like the next logical step for Lexus based on the direction they've been moving in. Are we sure this isn't a concept?
