Time to dust off the ol' girl...

[Vendetta]

Hey gang!

Been a while since I've chimed in here, sorry 'bout that.

2014's been pretty hectic for me. Moved (again), got engaged, got married, got some more clients, got some more stress, got some more gray hair, etc., etc. Net net though, it's been a great year and I hope all my friends here can say the same.

I've barely driven my VX this past year. Instead I let my wrench take his time sorting out issues mostly related to the supercharger, including installing an upgraded fuel pump. Now that they're ironed out (for now), it's time to get her dressed for winter.

It's been a long journey getting my VX where I want it to be, but it's a labor of love, and since I've got no plans to sell it ever, I've been taking my time with it. She's currently in the body shop for some TLC on the cladding, hood insert, and some custom badging. And maybe some additional lighting. We'll see.

Of course, pics will be posted at the roll-out.

Hope you guys are all doing great. I'm gonna read a bunch now and catch up as best I can.

Jo! What's up brotherman? I just knew you'd be at the front of the welcoming committee.

I've been driving "the yellow car" this past summer - and couldn't leave well enough alone (like, ever). Did some big work to it and now it's even more ridiculously ridiculous.

But with the cold weather, it's time to get serious!!! VX ALL DAY! Engine is finally right, no codes. Still not as powerful as I'd like... but I'm kinda jaded.

I've got a bunch of lighting that I'd like to get done, but if it's a matter of getting it back in time for the first big snow, I'll take it without.

Saw you sold the Proton! So help me out here, does that leave you with just the ORW or do you still have another one floating around?

Good to see you, man. Been way too long! I can see how people make wedding planning a full-time gig.

For you.......




Still have an 'almost' stripped down spares VX in the garage...
..otherwise just the ORW as of now.

Your 'Yellow car'.... is good wife bait.....

Cheers

The irony is that I knew her before the car. She's been such a patient lass, dealing with my procrastination - and my obsession with sporty 4-wheeled toys. So I bought her red one and suddenly it's not such a problem. LOL

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats V - WoW...quite a busy year!

KAT! Great to see you! Hope all's well on your end. Looking forward to catching up soon.

Hey been a while V.

Welcome (back) to the jungle!

[Vendetta]

Sup, 'Rado! Good to see you man. Gonna check your build thread for what's new.

Any other threads on the "must see" list? Cool builds, ideas, pics, entertaining drama... send 'em my way.

Well, I can send you the on-going new-member threads on CV replacement if you'd like. You probably missed out on at least a few dozen.


On a more serious note, here's a good thread for you to review. Make sure to RSVP as attending+1.

That glass is half full, bro. New member CV threads means new members. Plus, new members implies new owners, meaning new interest. Not bad for 15-year old rigs.

By the way, I've met up with ALC1717 in the real world, and his VX is in such amazing condition you'd swear it were a late model release. Our truck's design still holds up!

Will take a serious look at the calendar for Moab!

And thanks for the warm wishes, everyone. I landed a good one.

Welcome back V

Glad you had a great year ... albeit a busy one.

Best o' luck on the mods & grats on the weddings.

[Vendetta]

Thanks, Tom! Good to see you, hope you had great holidays and the new year is off to a great start!

Welcome back sir...

You've been missed.

[Vendetta]

Thanks Mile High, means a lot - being honest.

You'll believe me when I tell you that I've missed being here, too. This forum is so unique - like our beloved VX's - I felt guilty for neglecting the friendships I've made here. Can't say that about any other forum I've ever been on.

So to all you feel-y types out there (of which I can be one from time to time), sorry about that!
