Matt every single pic you posting is down. Says "bandwidth exceeded"
 
yeah that sucks. Would love to see those pics. How much does it cost to have the bandwidth raised? I'm sure we could do a little hpisf members sponsorship to get those pics back up.

I was just looking at how much it costs myself. Wow you used 10GB of bandwidth in a month. These pics are very popular.

well....no turkey for me today! i got an early start at around 7am this morning and went to work on the Beast. i got globs and globs of rust, pounds of pine straw, and qaurts of glass all out of the inside. i managed to clean the whole bottom out so she will be ready for paint. i also got all the hydraulic lines mount to the trans pump i took ALL THE CHRISTMAS LIGHT OFF TOO! man i'm beat it's 2:15 now and i'm about to pass out.....i got plenty of scars, scrapped nuckles , and a busted forehead out of the deal too. man i love monster truckin.....lol!

Man that is sweet. I gotta tell you, you did buy a legendary name/peice of the industry just like my dad did. But hopefully this works out for you. Because the Beast is SHAGG NASTYY!!
 
thanks! i think that book might be a hard backed book called Monster Trucks. let me know the author of that so i can find one!
 
that must make you proud that you now own a piece of monster truck history soulja55
 
saw those already....the ones at the bottom are the ones that i sent him........thanks though!
 
well...since a lot of people think that the Beast is just sitting...i figured i'd post pics off the Rusty working on the engine. but first off look at the oil pain off the engine......this thing hasn't been cleaned and it's a 1969 block! that's really clean.....no sludge or nothing.
