hey dazzling, great thread
the kind of cars you people are driving is what i expected,mostly practical, if i may, i don’t see any body here as cheap, when you have to move a 20ft extention ladder,3 doors and 100ft of t&g flooring, the ski racks on a beemer wont cut it no matter how good is your welding, if the under 15 net ball team has got to go…[Read more]j4smythe replied to the topic Have you got plans for your death in the forum Opinionated! 19 years, 2 months ago
