Does anybody look back at the mods....
« on: May 22, 2008, 09:56:51 PM »
I was organizing my pics of my rover into one folder and I realized that I started moding my rig at the end of october last year.  I had owned her for 6 years at that point.  

In those 7 short months it's amazing how much she has changed....

A quick pictorial of the change....

Anyone else look back and ask what the hell happened and how did I end up here lmao...   and is there a cure? :D

Every time I get in..... I wonder how it got to this point and when will it stop...
When I get in a customers stock D90 with 9000 original miles, I actually like driving in stock trim,... some times a truck that has been completely left alone is pretty cool.
....., now, back to reality,.. where did I put that Sawzall.....ha

haha I had a guy I work with stop by tonight to help me move the lawn mower and snow blower to my sister in law's house and I was showing him Wayne (coz I started taking off the front bumper...got tired of waiting for Justin, so I stole his tools) and he goes, 'So when is he gonna be done?' and I replied "It's a Land Rover, he'll never be done."

Speaking of the front bumper......why is it always one friggin bolt that just won't budge? gah! I had both feet braced on my tyre and was straining so hard I think I farted a few times and that damn thing is STILL on there. *shakes head* It's the last bolt too... I'm gonna steal some PB Blaster or something from Justin's shop tomorrow and that thing is (finally) coming off. rawr!
