I needed tires after having an older sears tire blow on my tow rig.

Big O tires had a special on some LT235 /85 R 16. They also took an additional 50 dollars off for black Friday morning.

So that's my black Friday deal. I was really going to buy them anyway out of necessity but it was nice to get a slightly better deal.

Now to get to hauling cars. :realcrazy: Hopefully I'll get 10 years out of these. That's less than the sears tires got but next time I won't give them an opportunity to blow out that bad.

Our stove and dishwasher were on their last lives (9 lives like cats!). So there we are. Two new appliances> Credit..no interest for 6 months!!! There goes the old car parts budget! Again!!
I keep telling my wife I CAN wash dishes!! She says "yea right!"
And then I say she can wash dishes and she says " Yea WRONG!" :thumbsup: :rofl: :BangHead:
 
fuel cell and a couple of small items from speedmaster
 
Ordered a set of small block Speedmaster heads just cause I can't pass up a deal...
 
So far I went and got my kid a set of Dodge Mirada factory mag wheels he's been wanting and telling me how few and far between they've been (of course he's been looking for that stuff, if he wasn't looking for them they'd be a dime a dozen). I was lurking on my wife's fake book marketplace and found a nice set for less than what he was saying, so I went over to Indiana about 45 miles from here and picked those up
 
I may be headed the other way tomorrow for a pile of D150 parts. Today I'm hostage to the house as I have a Milton (brand) hose crimper for shop air hoses that I didn't know was sent "sign required" til I got the notice on the mailbox yesterday that they "attempted to deliver" and no one was here,
And also waiting for the delivery truck to get here with my new mattresses. I hate how delivery guys are "well be there some time between 11 and 4".
I have running around to do today too ( not early Christmas shopping, just normal Saturday afternoon stuff) but I can't go until sleep number gets here

Those factory Mirada wheels are even more rare than a Volare!!! I like them!:thumbsup:
Here in Texas, if it ain't a pickup or a Chevy...... :BangHead:
 
That's kinda pretty !

I remember as a kid I would wear a tire till I saw the cords show before I got more used tires !
 
I snagged a set of SM loaded SB heads and the stud kit. I'm now committed to dropping the 318 in my 64 Valiant.
 
Now we need to find center caps
I am thinking I have used AMC "volcano " center caps. CHEAP! DISCLAIMER: I might be mistaken!!
I know it is NOT right , but I am NOT fancy!! I can not recall if I had a MOPAR decal or not. Heck the other day I could not recall my cell #!!!
But do I ever call myself!!????? NOooooooo!!
 
I didn't buy them on Black Friday but that's when they showed up. I used a 10% off coupon from Summit to buy some new tires for the Duster. These will be my Day 2/track tires for when I get tired of running my rallye wheels.

Thrift store XG-16 (extra guard version of Mopar PH-16) oil filter - $4.

I think they marked it up to 8 so they could say it was "50% off".
 
Picked this up at Harbor Frieght a couple days ago on sale.
$90 off.. Moved all my stuff out to the shop . Keep this in the garage for household tools , so I don't have to go to the shop every time I need a tool..

Harbor Freight has some pretty good deals, I picked up a 72" tool box and a few icon socket sets.

Tires are cheaper than bedsides.
