[SFRT]

allright..so today I finally got the R/T mobile..took it for a spin around towm, stopped by the wonderful fantasyland that is the SF DMV for 4 hours to get the plates and now it's in it's new house. I'll give it a week or 2 before I take it apart again.

[68chrgrwife]

[69bronzeT5]

Awesome! It looks really mean

[ramit]

I thought it was a pic of a model car...for some reason it looks kind of fake.   Sweet car though!

[SFRT]

actually, the fenders, hood and trunk lid are wasted, I have a real nice hood and trunklid waiting  go on, and will be ordering the amd fenders as soon as they are available.

[SFRT]

new disc brakes and restored hood hinges...

[SFRT]

[speedfreak68]

WOW  I love the way that thing looks its Bad Ass!!

[Hemidog]

[Brock Samson]

i finally get to see it,.. nice dumpster...

lol, i bet deathproof1970 is biting his knuckles...
i got an ashtray and a dash facia for ya' Frank.. Congrats,.. hows she runnin?..

[terrible one]

Beautiful! Sometimes you just can't beat flat black! What are the wheel/tire sizes?

[SFRT]

cool def can use those dash pieces. Im going to ditch those faces of meth looking centerlines as soon as my mopar oem style wheels get back from the powdercoaters. I will be running 15 x 8 in the back and  15 x 7 in the front with cop car dog dishes.

anyone in the bay area wants those mullet centerlines cheap or trade let me know.

-brock..runs fine, I need a choke tho, or a new carb. clutch needs adjusting its brutal...otherwise it purrs fine. I can hear whats either a small exhaust leak or a lifter about to give out tho so I must investigate before i do any more driving.

[Brock Samson]

any chance you can take a break long enough to go up to sears point for the wends night drags?..

[SFRT]

next 2 weeks im under major deadline crunch for a Sony campaign.....maybe next month! I havent been up there for years.

[SFRT]

[Charger_Fan]

Good looking Charger.
Nice garage, too. I'm envious of all that open garage space...you seem to have more vertical space in there than mine has in depth.

[Dans 68]

Let me know when you and Brock want to get together and compare rides...I'll cruise up and buy youse guys a beer (but just one...  ).

[SFRT]

[Brock Samson]

I dropped by Frank's place Sat. to find him inspecting his old bike that was just delivered after being bought back from the guy he sold it to some years ago...
i took a few pics and thought I'd share them with you all,.. by the way,..  those are also his ducatis in the back...

[Brock Samson]

Frank's got cool toys... 

[TheGhost]

Some wide tire under that Charger.

[Chatt69chgr]

Hey SFRT-----what's the deal with the grill on top of the display cases?  Is it kind of a display ornament or somethiing?

[Brock Samson]

that's the perfect grill that's going on along with the perfect hood and fenders, and those tires and rims are all gonna be replaced too...
 

[The Kid]

Wow dude, you've got some nice toys ! Love the Charger !

[JMF]

Which BMW is that? Not many cars look as big as a Charger but that looks huge

[69*F5*SE]

Yeah, nice shop & nice toys.

[SFRT]

heh. the old shovelhead, it came back pretty beat up, but, the buy back price was 11K less than I sold it for..so I sorta came out ahead on that deal. crap economy and his messy divorce=my gain. Guy messed up a few things on that will need....correcting.

I spent the rest of that day doing a temp re-wiring on the chargers engine bay. darn thing caught on fire when a stray alt wire melted and shorted to the header. those big meats are on account of the hillbilly blown out airshocks/ 1982 vintage shackle-orama...which is all coming off ina couple of weeks now that the oem style 15" wheels are here. I'll be running 8" wide in the back.

yeah I been hoarding up parts galore and in about 2 weeks am going to do a bit of major surgery..new  disc brakes all the way around...pull the engine, re-do the doghouse, replace the hood, trunk etc etc. I just want all the parts piled up so I can just do it all at once more or less. I stil need a set of those AMD front fenders. I have most everything else.

yeah thats my buddies car. its a 2005 I think. He had a cadillac, but the head gasket blew and they wanted about 8 grand to fix it so he ditched that and got the Bmxw. not my sort of thing at all but hes happy.

[SFRT]

today...got a full house since someone swiped the free parking spot outside.

I have too many vehicles.

[C_stripes]

Nice box of toys.  You need a roof rack on that FJ though.

[SFRT]

yeah I was thinking a Gobi Stealth rack.

[C_stripes]

I think I know the one you are talking.  Also.  Paint the roof black, have you seen the SE's?   They are nice. There is a new SE out in solid white. There is less than one per dealer. We got one on accident. It was sold within two hours.  I love the FJ's

[Finn]

my brother has a five series like that but gray, must admit it changed my mind on bmws. I still think theyre way over priced but damn does that thing handle/go.

[SFRT]

the 'stealth' rck is lo profile and follows the curve of the roof. pretty nice. I actually use the fj to haul our enduro bikes out to the hot dry places and the white roof is actually pretty functional to keep the heat down inside the truck.

I love the fj...it is super functional...I managed to order one from Japan with all the 4wd goodies and manual 6 sp but without the other options  like the goofy boombox and so on...so I got a really decent 4x4 for really cheap ( 26K). I used to own a 4Runner and my positive experience with that has me commited to Toyota for 4x4.

[drifter69]

Like your choice of paint on the 69, or is that temporary. Was thinking of going satin black on mine. Still tossin it around.
