From what I read, mine weighs 210 pounds. I told the buyer I'd only take it if she'd arrange for delivery. She had some guys working at her house and three of them put it in the back of her Prius and then offloaded it into my garage. Didn't look like fun when the pulled it out, but I wasn't going to risk my back! It's surprisingly easy to move around on the concrete garage floor.

Bookshelf speaker finds:

Left to right:

ADS L400. Perfect electronics, VG cabinets, rough grills. FREE!
(End of day deal, guy told me to get them outta there! He had them listed for five bucks, I picked them up and put them down, he ran over and said just take them...)

Bose 301 Series 2.
5 bucks for the pair!
Great electronics, rough cabinets, grills are OK.
These sound fantastic in the garage.

Polk RT35i
30 bucks for the pair.
Perfect in every way, even the bottom of the cabinets.
These are a perfect match for the RT55i's in my home theater.

That looks just like the safe my great grandfather won at a fair. My grandmother had if for years and now my dad has it. Still has the lettering on the front with my great grandfathers name on it. Wish I had a picture of it to post to compare but from memory yours looks just like it even the interior. Very cool!

I just scored a bed liner for my '02 Silverado on CL for only $150.00.

It's off a '12 truck - the owner just bought the truck (12K miles) and wants a painted liner instead of this one.

Going to pick it up tomorrow afternoon - mine is split in the middle from all the pallets of sod I have carried over the years.

Stoked!

Line-X won't work for me, Sid...I need a slippery surface for sliding pallets back and forth. In fact i always spray lubricant on my bed liner when I am handling pallets - so I can slid them easier.

Thanks Herr Oberst....I just hope the sucker fits my '02! Will find out tomorrow.

I have a care package heading your way soon, BTW.

Grabbed an '84 Honda 70 Mini Bike this past weekend...for FREE

Carb needs cleaning and jug gasket is shot so she drips oil...but it's got the dual rear shock, metal tank, and loads of cool!

Saucy Jr will be taking turns with dad in a couple summers.

Will post pic tonight, yes, it's real.

My bedliner score turned out to be a bust. I thought it was going to be an 8' size and it was the smaller 6' length size.

Here's how the classified was worded:

extended cab regular bed

Wouldn't you think "regular" meant 8'? My truck is extended cab with 8' bed but most extended cab trucks do have the smaller (6') length so I can understand the mix up. I should have verified to be sure but even when you look at the pics....it looks like the longer size. No harm done, I was in the neighborhood anyway looking at a new construction landscape job and I'm not in a bind with my bed liner - it just has a crack in the center bottom that's need to be addressed. Wonder if it's repairable.

Onward....

Baz, in the truck world, the 8ft bed is a long bed.

Over the past weekend I picked up two rolls aprox. 1,750 s.f. of attic reflective foil for $100.00. Not bad and it just so happens I am ready to install this in my detached garage..........perfect timing !!!

I have that same collection. This book was well worth full price to me, 40 bucks is a steal. (Looks like yours is defective, being upside down and everything, ha ha!)
