at the i5 drag strip
Let me guess...... 55 vs 55.2mph pass?
At least there's no hill and/or curve.
Where's the plant at? We have MM here in MI too....Newest Martin Marietta plant is a monster. Picture doesn't do it justice and Satellite photo hasn't updated yet.
Found a somewhat updated image
It’s blowing the skirt up on the track guy too.It's a 60s dragster doing a burnout and a wheelie at the same time, how can you not love that picture! The only cars that do that now a days are Chargers driven by Vin Diesel in fast and furious movies.
Me too. No luck yet. That stuff just doesn't exist out here. For now I'm just trying to tighten up my ancient cone head Monarch.herringbone gears are cool
I've been halfass looking for an old sidney all herringbone lathe for a while
but really I'd settle for any gear head that's convenient enough to drag home
Good. stupid should hurt!Ok this was a couple hours ago, but I'm trying to punch out jobs before the rain tomorrow...
Center lift trailer fail lol.
Came back through a bit ago and they are giving the owner he heck of a tow bill.
They sent out a heavy wrecker to lift it onto a rollback wrecker...
I bought that lathe around 7~8 years ago for $750. I searched for over three years and this one popped up on CL. I made contact immediately and took off work next day to travel 3 hours one way to get it. The seller said he was bombarded by people to buy it so I got lucky in it. At the time lathes were selling for $1,500 range. They are in the $3k range now along with bridgeports. $3k on a Bridgeport is very low now and I paid $1,500 for my veritable speed one around the same time as my lathe.Me too. No luck yet.

Right before Christmas I found a J head Bridgeport on Craigslist 6 hours away, for $500. The ad was 3 hours old, I called and it had been spoken for despite me offering $1000
3-4 weeks later the guy emails me and asks if my offer was still on the table. Original buyer ghosted him. I called him and told him yes! I'm loading tools and straps and stuff and I'm heading your way as we speak.
12 hour round trip drive plus 3-4 hours to break the machine down and get it loaded. Long friggin day but totally worth it!
Do you guys even rune plates on that rig?
Probably been answered before but I assume you drill wells for farms?
How old is that drill rig truck thing?
Are you really tall or just trying to hide the beer bellyStopped at the Bass pro shop for a few Tall shirts. It’s hard finding places that sell Tall stuff.

No way that’s the original plate! It would say 000001 on it.
DOT won’t mess with it, not enough violation pages in their ticket book, they see it coming and decide it’s time for a donut break insteadDo you guys even rune plates on that rig?
