Don't want to derail the thread, but extra style points for mentioning Kookie. Norm Grabowski, who built the Kookie car, was a very good friend of mine. He was also a world class wood carver. His hand carved wooden skulls are highly sought after. We have the world's largest collection of his...
Okay, so after taking everyone's advise to heart, I did start a weight loss campaign this week. I removed the rear bumper, winch, and hitch skid plate. I put the stock bumper back on. I lost about 200 pounds with those changes. We are going to the Jeep Adventure Academy in Texas this Saturday...
