Vintage Tandem Funco Off Road Racing Buggy For Sale
Do you remember the Funco tandem off road race buggies from the late 70’s and early 80’s? This Funco desert racing buggy is the infamous Patrick & Bowers buggy that won the Score 1980 Class 2 championship. It has won such races as the Mint 400 and Baja 500. If being a tandem buggy is not enough, it has the typical 80’s parts like yellow Bilstein shocks, Cibie lights and a windshield. I am not sure I would like to be the passenger in this one…what do you think?

What Do Chris Brogan, US Mail and A Jeep Assembly Line Have In Common?
Nothing. They have nothing in common, except that Chris Brogan used the above photo of a US Postal Jeeps in a blog post. Chris Brogan is known as one of the leading business consultants and speakers in North America. He writes Entrepreneur Magazine and is involved in a number of business coaching and online mentor programs. So, needless to say, I was surprised to see the US Postal Jeeps on the assembly line photo in his blog post titled Organize Your Business.
Brogan starts the article by stating that most small businesses do not work like an assembly line. He goes on to show us how he organizes his business day. While process may not work for everyone, it shows how you can achieve greater success by having goals and strategies in place on how to meet those goals. Time management is a huge contributing factor to success in both your professional and personal life. Priorities need to be laid out at the start of each day. Brogan and his commenters talk about not checking email for a few hours. I personally find this instrumental in getting tasks done! If I check one email, I will check another. Then another. Before you know it, I am working on a totally different project. Or worse yet, surfing the web, Facebook or Twitter. What works for you? How do you lay out your priorities at work? At home?

This 1957 Jeep Gladiator Fire Truck is one of my favourites. I have actually never seen one in person. Have you?
Summertime Means Woody Wagons!
There is nothing that says summer time like a bunch of woody wagons at the beach! I have seen photos of the Mercury before. It was converted to 4×4 when new with a Marmon Herrington 4wd conversion. As for the International, it is the first time I have seen it, but I think I am in love! What a beautiful machine! What do you think?

If you have been reading this blog for a while, you know that 1966-1977 Ford Broncos are my favourite. It kills me to see this early Bronco just rusting away.
