Re: Any sports car people?
If we have a TX CHL car rally I'll show up but you guys are going to be watching me trying to catch up in your rear view mirror. My CUCV and Suburban are sloooooowwwwwww. But it's ok they are reliable.

Re: Any sports car people?
Well I'm not much of a go fast guy just because I can't afford it. I do however fix up old trucks. I'm currently working on three.
First is a true military vehicle. It's a 1986 M1009 CUCV. It was introduced to the military as a cheaper alternative to the HMMWV. Many are being sold at auction now by the government. I got mine for less than a grand with 19k miles on her. Many mods so far.
My next fixer upper is a 1984 Toyota FJ60. 284k miles on it and still runs good and everything is tight. A few mods so far and I'm looking at dropping a diesel in her. Also looking at some bumpers and a lift kit.
The last truck I currently own and work on is a 1986 Chevrolet 2500 Diesel 4x4 Suburban. I got it from the forestry service for right at a grand. Runs good and has about 60k miles on her. This one has my soon to be bride on the hood.
