Belt sander
Upgraded my 70's Craftsman grinder with a Trick Tools multi tool. I also put a grizzly XY table on my old Craftsman drill press for better hole accuracy.

New specialty plates
They don't add any horsepower or comfort to my ride, but $15 is a bargain for a little extra cool factor! Now just don't get pulled over for "racing" lol

My "new" summer home/hauler
Thought I would share this.
To those of us who see some members exotic cars and wish they could afford one themselves, it's all in perception.
I flew down to Florida last Thanksgiving to pick this beauty up and drive it 1300 miles home. Took a buddy, and had a blast for a few days reconnecting.
This motorhome in 2011 went for more money than I spent building my house, so yes, this is my new "Ferrari " lol.
Hoping some future uses can be hauling my Firebird to the track to spend a weekend.

Not really a purchase but a gift from my parents. 1966 Black on black with a 440 instead of the original 383. I’ve got a set of 18” steel wheels that I plan to run with poverty caps and lower it just a bit. With a few tweaks it’ll be a great family car.

This is my new project. A Roadster Shop RS4 chassis and a 7.3 Godzilla are under serious consideration. Won't change a thing with the cosmetics.
