Stop in for a cup of coffee

It seems like this all happened when the shot em up video games started. Just my $.02

I did a graduate thesis on this and you are partially correct. Research shows that those games have an effect, but it also correlates with an increase in mind altering drugs and the reduction in discipline in schools, combined with larger class sizes as districts consolidate small schools into larger ones.

Just a volitale mix of factors.

Yeah... closest story I have to any of that cool stuff is I got to do a VIP shoot alongside one of the Seal Sniper teams including Chris Kyle, before he became famous, Circa 2006. At the time, he was just a SEAL sniper badass but his legend would later make me wish I’d gotten each of their autographs back then.

One of those SEALs later ended up becoming one of the ones that took out the somali pirates to save Capt Phillips.

My cousin led one of the deadliest platoons in Iraq... They killed more insurgents than any other platoon... He served about 4 deployments there...

His dad showed us an email where T J earned a presidential award for putting himself in harms way so the rest of his platoon could get to safety while two Iraqi snipers shooting at them... T J was a sniper also and took out both Iraqis before they got him or any of the other troops....

I remember him sitting on my lap at the family Christmas party when he was younger and I had to be Santa....

Oop's, maybe it was his grand son and his son I seen

Willies boys Lucas( Guitar)and Mica (Drums) are young-uns. Could easily be seen as " grandsons"! Seen them play many times. They were growin' up around Paia on Maui and I would see them kicking around every once in a while. Good kids.
Lucas and his band Promise of the Real has been doing very well lately. Even spent some time backing up Neil Young for a tour recently.

Sorry, I meant to edit and not reply.. Im just looking at options, and what works best.

 

[straightlinespeed]

I was looking at a set of these from TTI, but for $80, I think there may be better options and these are supposed to mount to the seat belt bolts.

 

[Ddaddy]

Do you have the body brackets still on the car?

 

[straightlinespeed]

Do you have the body brackets sill on the car?

Ya, and I would like to utilize those since they are there. Right now I just have the rubber strap with holes in it clamped to the muffler. Looking for ideas from all of you, how your exhaust is done.

I did that, but those OE parts arent available to the best of my knowledge especially the muffler clamp. I did a google search and found 1 OE muffler clamp for $66.

I dont need OE, I just want a good hanger that people like. Google search's of exhaust doesnt show the best details of the hangers either.
