not even one WOW the first CJ convert found that was the whole point of this, expand your horizons boys, it really is alot of fun, not cheap but fun.

charley: i got none of that stuff, you lie like ashpalt but you know i still don't think you suck.

njsteve: carfuwy vewwy, vewwy carfuwy. done just like a tow truck, a bar in front and behind each tire, then traingulated to a block and tackle at the top of the rack, then pull the chain till you are blue in the face, no big deal. i first saw the system when i got charley's miura , that fella had em five high i recall.

Looks like a black shaker hood mustang convertible on the top rack does that have a 428 in it as well????

Are you happy with your racks and where did you get them if you are happy? Thanks.

Fred,
I second Bruce's WOW. I think these Chevy guys are too cool to get excited about the CJ convert, so you should sell it to me and save further embarassment.

I didn't see any pictures of my 1/3rd LS6 convert - you aren't selling more shares, are you? LOL

All I have to say about those racks is that you are a man of incredible faith. The euro cars are one thing, but you've got all those big block lumps up top! Lotta faith in those little pins on the crossbars!

If I show up with a Cal Spyder, do I get to ace Charley out of that blue car? Just wondering. I've got a guy here that is a Ford whiz, FYI, and would love to restore that CJ for you. He is inexpensive, and the car would be at ground level and everything.

Colin
