Hey Everyone,

Just thought I might resurrect this thread and post up my small humble collection.

The Mobile Rig. AKA old reliable......

Anywayz, that is most of my collection. I am working on redoing and updating the van right now and should have pic's shortly.

Oh, and just for good measure, 90% of everything I have collected came from the fine people at AutoGeek. :dblthumb2:

Welcome to the 12-Step program, your first step is recognizing your addiction. :xyxthumbs:

How in the world do you get away with storing your supplies by the fireplace? My wife would KILL me! :) OTOH, I've got several thousand rounds of ammo and two range bags (aka bugout bags) in my bedroom floor. ROTFL

Hey their cardaddy,

I sure do appreciate the props much along with all the other kind words people said bout my small collection. Very much appreciated as always. :xyxthumbs:

Actually kinda wish you were here coming up in a couple weeks. I am going to start prepping a one off custom 49 Caddy wagon for Jim "Bones" Noteboom for the Grand National Roadster Show on 1/25/2013 where the car will be debuted in a 20 x 20 display at the entrance. The car itself was designed and built by Ken Ginnings who has a custom shop across the parking lot from my shop. Most everything on it was one off hand built. They figure the car has close to $450,000 in it with a one off $20,000 tri tone paint job from Pete Santini, and right now getting a full custom interior from Ron Mangus. Here is kinda a sneak peak at her. Man is she looooong.

The shelf may be small but there is alot of dough sitting here lol. Lets say umm 800 worth. I had a lot more MF towels from meguiars but been having bad luck with them so i sent alot of my towels back for a refund and buying mothers towels. Plus mothers products are much cheaper and have better results =].

Well I can say I recognize the Santini and Mangus names. Great score there buddy!

Is that a Zephyr wagon??? Dude likes long-n-low ya' think!!! :dblthumb2:

Back when I was working I both looked forward to and wanted to run and hide when "world of wheels" came to town. Owned a flatbed only towing service, (no wreck work or impounds, just transport stuff). We would run for 36 hours straight once the doors opened at the arena just getting cars in there. Then all night that Sunday when the show closed trying to get everything out by 800am.

Glad I don't have to do that anymore....
 
Not organized at all, but this is probably about 80% of everything I have.
