    (PROJECT) AmEx Black

    Hello all, Just thought I'd share my newest project with you. While I love (PROJECT) Street Dingo, it has a couple of drawbacks. First, the thing is big. I can't fit it in the back of my Yukon, so I have to trailer it everywhere. Plus, I bust a nut trying to load it by myself. And with a...

    Scored a barn-fresh Rupp Dart today!

    Thread question (not sure where else to post)

    Quick question. I've noticed on this forum (especially with project threads) that people get a few pages of posts then start a new thread on the same subject...typically with the same title and a #2, #3, and so on added to the end. Are we capped by the # of posts per thread? Just curious...

    Hello All, First-time poster here. Wanted to share my newest project. It's an 8HP Manco Dingo. After some "artful" negotiation, my girls and I drove over to Auburn Hills last weekend and picked 'er up. Runs like a champ. It was the estate of an older couple who kept it for their...
