On the left, the air ratchet, 50 ft/lbs of torque.  The Severe Duty was 55, and another $18...   In the middle, the Standard Duty Impact Wrench, 250 ft/lbs of lovin'...   And finally, the die grinder.  25,000 RPM of joy...   Great collection of stickers on the toolbox huh?  An old habit I reckon, but fun, gives the boxes a bit of character, and besides, can't mistake it for someone else's...

Once upon a time, in an Enchanted Land, I AutoCrossed.  Parking lot racing if you will.  One of my few First Place events...  This particular event was in a box stock, plain, fresh from the showroom 1982 Plymouth Champ.  Hadn't done a thing to it yet...  beat up on them nasty Camaros and Mustangs and Vettes (oh my)...  There were a lot of ruffled feathers this day...

Yep, the 26 gallon compressor... Noisy, but man, I love air tools...   Also visible, my wife's flower boxes...

Twenty year old 40 channel Radio Shack CB radio.  Made back in the day when 5 watts output was legal.  Back when you needed a license (KKV-2572).  Replaced the Mic jack twice, need to do it again...mounted to a speaker box.  Plenty loud.   One of my 200 channel scanners.  This one is a modified rig, won't say how though...feeding another twenty year old Radio Shack item, the speaker.  This is an excellent voice communications speaker, and is still available at your neighborhood Rat Shack...   I've a couple of other scanners for specific purposes...   In dash, is the Alpine CD unit.  4 years old, but still spinning.  I can go over some really rough stuff before it skips...Nice installation, huh?  Did it myself.  Well, better than the Kenwood I put in my 82 Champ...needed a hacksaw and a file, and some black RTV before I was done on THAT one...  But it fit...

Hotwheels cars are an addiction for me.  Guess I didn't have enough of 'em as a kid or something...  No, this isn't all, I've got about 1250 cars at this time, and always looking...   I haven't bought as many this past year due to buying a house, the Supercrew and the Neon...  But every now and again, my lovely bride lets get one or two...

Email me.  I love email..
