My Bluepoint Snap-on set
Short story,
I went to sears and almost bought a 129.99 dollar craftman set, then i was thinking to myself i should check on ebay. So while i was in sears i got on my phone and check out some tools. I bid on a set of Bluepoint Snap on and got them for $130 shipped. The only flaw was it was missing wrench 11mm and 5/16 and another but i was still happy because i don't even use standard wrenches. So here they are. Used but still in good condition, could use a little polishing.

Ill swing by Intense today at lunch and snap some shots of the F14s that came in last week for me... same day my car died. Kinda didnt care about the wheels at that moment, no pics taken. They are extremely light for the size btw.. very cool.
Bronze f14s are more elusive to find pics of than bigfoot ho.. Ill make sure to take a few good ones and post it up later today.

Hmm. Depending on a conversation tomorrow..may be changing that engine build towards something in the 8s for compression ... and we all know what that means. Wish me luck in the financials dept. Hopefully tomorrows post will read Big time FI. excited ...can't sleep! Ha.
