Every so often,the Model T Ford forum shares pics of our other toys, so here goes, l'll start.
Hopefully this hasn't been on recently, as l'm new to this forum, l will tread lightly.
Join in where and when you want.

Thanks Griffin.  It belongs to my wife.  Her Dad bought it new, and gave it to her a couple of years ago.  The 67 Chevy truck is my Dad's.  He'll pass it to me, and I'll pass it to my son.  My Grand Dad bought it in '69.

Yeah.  Very cool.  Similar colors, although the FJ is VERY faded.  The original color is a good bit darker, more like this.

  I like the Buick roadmaster wagons. Here are the three we have.
 
 
 
 
The first one is my son's new ride (80K on the clock)
The second is my Daughter's ride (225K on the clock)
The third one is our original family wagon bought new in 96 (277K on the clock)

If we are talking "toys" how about a 2008 Polaris Razr black carbon fiber edition, with a stage III cam, headers, dual looney tunes exhaust system, boonedocker fuel booster, 4" lift kit.  She will run 80 all day, and climb almost straight-up walls.

Rob, I am jealous!  What nice shop and collection of cars!  Thumbs Up
 
John, is that a 46-48 Ford?  Is that yours too?  It looks very nice. 
 
I like the hoists too.  That's the next thing I need to invest in so I have more room for vehicle storage.  I am hoping to get a Bendpak drive-on hoist next year.

i've been running my rad cap loose on my 2003 to avoid that chore, hasn't lost a drop or got hot for over a year maybe 2? now the right side exhaust manifold is cracked & blown out below where i can't see it. i have an ADTR Vortech kit and Typhoon intake for my 2011 so i can swap the stock one over, and if i get headers i can swap the manifolds too. a lot of work on a car that old & technically totalled but it's only got 150k on it, 27k on the 2011 :)

That's a pretty cool firewall John.  I am assuming it's polish stainless?  Good luck with the repair.

Bit late on this one.  The first is what the herd looked like in Arizona.  Sold the Duster and Baja to finiah the Demon that is below.  It is still not done but should be in the spring.

Thank you.

CAJohnny here are your pics of the Demon.  This was during the build process.  Still not quite there.  Life and family take precident.  As for a roller they are around.  Heck get a duster and make it a demon, change the tail light panel, put the correct 71-72 grill and trim and you have a Demon.

Yes, 4WD, Kubota 4cyl diesel, rear steer. Got a deal on it, but have enough mowers. Some of my friends think I should pop off the mower deck, add large mudders and take it off-road.

Yes, new they are $29K. It's not eating anything just sitting there, so no big rush to sell it. This one is a 5111, so it can support the side "batwing" side decks as well, to make almost 16 feet wide of cutting, lol. It's a hoss. for sure.

I love the chipper setup - never thought about hooking my chipper to it!

Leaves.
Leaves are in my garage.
Maybe squirrels.
I don't go in there anymore.
There might be bats.
Monsters.
Definitely monsters.
Spiders too.
I'm not going in there with spiders.

I've got two cars in my garage, and a big new freezer at the door I can't get moved in to use it. There are parts in the way, a few engine blocks, two transmissions, a big pressure washer I can't get out, lots of wheel/tires, a big tool box I haven't filled, the small tool boxes of course, and lots of parts. BTW, it's a two car garage.
