    Yeah, so here I am. How's everyone doing? Looks like there are more boxes here.

    1990 MGM: $50 E7 heads, HO cam, Holley SysteMAX lower intake, HO upper intake with an Explorer TB. LSC ECM. Lincoln logs into stock dual exhaust. K&N drop in air filter. Wide ratio AOD, 2400 converter with a 3.08 one tire fire out back. Car is less slow now. Then there's the '92 Beater. Dual 2.25" exhaust with shiny tips. Rumbles nice. Super slow. Burns oil too.

        Here's one. I've had this one for 8 years and am hoping for many, many more.

        It was T-boned on the passenger side back in May. The new B-pillar is currently waiting for paint. The rest of it will get painted next year. I can't complain too much, the junkyard doors match the car, including the pin stripe.

        I'll post some more up after work today.

          welcome to the box yard. We like the curvy ones too.

            The curvy ones are ok. I bought one, after all.

            Here's a shot of all three of our Mercs. It's the only pic I have where all three are together, as the '92 is usually in storage in the summer.

            Here's a current image. New pillar and door jamb is ready for paint.

                      That's a nice fleet you've got there. That crash picture is sad, I'm just glad it wasn't totalled and is in the hands of someone who's willing to fix it.

                            That crash would have ended a lesser car.

                              It should have ended it. But I couldn't let her go like that. It wouldn't have been right, and I wouldn't be able to forgive myself. So, it's getting fixed.

                              You should have seen the Toyota.
