hey all, I used to be pretty active here, until a few years ago when I sold the Z, got into jeeps and have been burried in the "jeep thing" since. Right now I'm tire kicking on an s10 (no, not a ZR2, just a regular old S10)

Anyways, thought I'd say hey, again.

BTW, Brady, from Fredericksburg, Virginia.

A pic of my old ZR2 (back when I was in Cali):



And a pic of me (had back surgery last year, was way out of it and wife was giving me my bath and thought it would be fun to mess with my hair):

Ya I am having identity problems that’s for sure, I was trying to get everything to match with youtube and a few other sites but it didn’t pan out the way I thought, also I was still be called Crusty in here anyways and to fix the confusion with the new crowd with some of the older threads, I figured it would be better if I just changed it back..

Some things in life you just can’t shake guess this is one of them?.?.?.

Yep May will be 5 years... The first few months was the worst after that it was not a problem at all. It's more of a habbit thing, the drug it self is out of your system on the 3rd or 4 day, then you are just fighting the habbit part of it..

awesome dude.. I wish my mom had your will-power... I've tried begging, pleading, guilting, etc etc

I have been through Fredericksburg a few times. When my girlfriends brother lived in Hampton we were down that way quite a bit.

Thanks....

It's a nasty addiction that for sure, Some will never over come it others can just walk away and never have another one.

Just keep at her.. One day she may put them down..

welp, I picked up another Z! although its in pretty rough shape:






As you can see, she's had a rough life. I picked it up cheap because it had an engine fire and the guy just wanted to get rid of it.

I plan on pulling it all apart, and selling the body, motor, trans, etc. and swapping my sonoma body/motor/trans onto this frame, and since its a 2wd, I'm thinking I'll just throw a divorced tcase in it and rock it.

excuse the chitty photohack, but here is my artistic rendering:

[ReDnekZ]

that will be one badass custom! I can't wait to see a thread on it!

[orangemonster]

Looks like a prime canvas for a V8 swap

[1TN LSYJ]

Thanks guys, for now, the plan is to get it swapped over to the zr2 frame and make it a true mall crawler (no t-case, no front shaft, nothing) then swap in a jk 30 front and an ls1 (or similar) with a t-56 trans and a divorced case

[cknaffle]

Please not those Rockstar wheels.

[N2O_ZR2]

then swap in a jk 30 front

Might as well leave it IFS.
