What did you buy yourself today - PART 1

[claudel]

I bought this muffler almost a year ago, it was finally released from purgatory last week.

The top one arrived today.

Customer at my gunshop makes these great flags in either 50 star, Betsy Ross or Don't tread on me. I opted for traditional - he does a nice job making them I think !
Of course while there, some estate stuff had just come in so picked up an older Rossi 971 357 mag ported and a little Tanfoglio FIE 25 for a song



Rossi actually cleaned up pretty nice - looks like it wasn't fired much. I know it's just a Rossi, but I kinda like it

Been seeing ads for those online lately! They look really nice, if it's the same guy. They have a warn-tattered flag(again, if it is the same guy) I'd love if I had the extra money right now.

Nothing major, but here are two little things that can occasionally be found cheap at the kind of gun shops that specialize in hunting crap but not much else.

Early pinned base 1911 mag and WWII era Scovill mag.

I've seen some of those on ebay, etc.. Most have sprayed on stars where these are all hand carved - I think it looks nicer carved My wife now wants to know "what are you going to do with that piece of wood" - how dare she Think I'll go hang it on the front door now ...............

1993 Z71 Silverado $300
I'm going to rattle can this one khaki, fde or similar. Anyone know where I can find a used flatbed frame? The box is caved in pretty good in the passenger side and I always wanted a flatbed for work.

I'm replacing the step side on my 88. While I'm at it I'll put in the fuel pump and take care of whatever else I find under there that needs doing.

I'm liking the 93. 350 with 5 speed. It's been a long time since I drove stick. I love these gmt 400 trucks

No, these were definitely carved, so it very well could be the same guy

Good pickup for the price.

I see it has the special edition GM paint. I have a car with that same option.


I vote for FDE.


A flat titanium blue would look great too and then you'd have blue door jams already.

There isn't much paint left to remove that's for sure. What is there can be taken off at the car wash.

I've gotten pretty good with the rattle can paint jobs. I've got the black police wheels that came off a Tahoe with 33s. I think it will look pretty "Desert Stormish" with the paint scheme.
