Thats very nice........
Re: post a pic of your latest purchase
was tired of the cheap sun glasses I kept getting. The last pair was a horrible clarity quality and the lense kept popping out so on a walk through the mall I came across my old work station of the sunglass hut. I worked there when I was 18-19 and was sad to see they had moved it 20 ft forward from its old location DIRECTLY infront of victorias secret. Had a couple of great summers hangin out in that spot getting to know the victoria's girls. When I was bored I would call them up and ask if they had a specific flavor of edible underwear and then continue to creep them out and keep them on the phone until I could not keep from laughing. I imagine that this behavior might qualify as stalking today but hey this was the 90s....
Anyway I picked these up, my first nice set since I worked there. Clearity is amazing, hardly feel them on my face, forgot how nice a good pair of glasses can be.

Re: post a pic of your latest purchase
be happy to send ya what ya need itchy. Been really impressed with these. So much so that I have not yet put them anywhere except in the case wrapped with the cloth to store them. This has never happened before and I wonder if/when it will end but I guess I will see. The last nice pair of glasses I had I got as a sales spiff from there and I managed to hold onto them for 3-4 yrs, hopefully these will last longer.

Re: post a pic of your latest purchase
My first ever amp was a LANZAR LXR200. I just found, then scored a LANZAR LXR120Q. Never even knew one existed. Decent looking shape too. Should be here any day now. Will edit this post and add pics when I arrives.

Re: post a pic of your latest purchase
Thanks. I am only driving it about 3 times a week yet. Going to take me a number of detailing sessions to get the paint where I want it. It is faster then people might think, it handles like a longer Miata (no turns have bothered it yet, freaking glued). Need to tint asap, and considering an exhaust. It compliments the P5 nicely, just get's about 10-12mpg less.stipud wrote:Hot damn! Nice toydenim wrote:and I went out for milk, no luck so I brought this home:

My first motorcycle. Got it for free from a friend. Fun to work on (clean carbs, fluids, bearings, brakes, tires...etc).

Re: post a pic of your latest purchase
I should post some pics of the spark plug wires I got. I found a couple of them were loose last week so I ordered a kit from taylor where the one end is finished and the other end I can cut to length, crimp and then have the perfect length cable. Took the first cable off, ran the new one and cut it to length. When I went to strip it I was a little confused as there was the black outer insulation, a thick white-core insulation, as well as finally a smaller black insulation(like standard wire insulation) wrapped around some rope. I thought when I stripped the last black insulation that I pulled the copper out so I took an exacto knife and cut into about 3-4" of the wire half way through, and found nothing but rope. I pulled the boot off of the other end and they had the black insulation and the wrope crimped but there was no sign of any metal inside of it. What auto-god did I piss off that I order some high-quality 8mm spark plug wires that have NO WIRE INSIDE OF THEM? I called summit where I got them from and figured I would have to send a pic to show them I was not high and the dude on their end was just as confused..... Another set is on the way, hopefully it was not a huge spool of wire that they got with no conductor in it and this set is the same way.....
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.
