Cool stuff for sale in Austin, for a great cause

[pronstar]

A buddy on another forum is adopting his newborn niece due to family issues I won’t get into here.
He’s a young single dude, head is on straight, and he’s really stepping up to the plate.

At any rate, he’s in Austin and is selling a ton of cool toys to raise funds.
Thought some of you guys might be interested in some of it.
Here’s a link to the post with pics:

Shlbynto any updates on the kid?

It's difficult to ask for a handout. I know I couldn't do it, and I'd (like you) be doing what I had to do. But......... Those of us that are parents and have already raised our kids, know what's ahead for you. So please... Give it some thought and allow those of us that know what's coming...

I hope it turns out well for him & the kid. I have 2 different friends who stepped up to take care of their nieces. The first one adopted the wife niece when her mom died of cancer when the kid was in her early teens. A total success story as the kid grew up went to college & has a good life. (her uncle was talking about a machine gun for her at one point.)

The other is a total tragedy. Once again it was a 16 year old niece from the SIL. The kid biological mother was a crackhead. The niece fell in with other misfits at school & started acting out got into drugs. They take the girl in & figured rehab might do her good. Once back home she ran away in the first hour of being back in their home. The poor soul ended up with some total dirt bags & overdosed on Fentynal. Know were the kid ended up I believe she was being trafficked by some dirtbag pimp wannabes. Needless to say it turned into a very emotional mess for 2 families.

If we weren't about to get a MG I'd give a serious look at the 150 Lightning. Bet that would be fun to own for awhile.

I had a 97 Expedition that I put a procharger on, hung out with a bunch of guys with Lightnings. Guys first upgraded to Whipples and were
putting down 600-ish hp…around the time I sold that truck, guys were putting turbos or giant Procharger F1 blowers on them and making crazy power.

First time I’d ever seen the heads lift off the motor on a dyno was a Whippled Lightning…scared the shit out of me when it happened and coolant puked everywhere.

I’d love love love to have that Lightning as well.

You could probably get 2 or 3 machine guns for the price of the electric truck.

Some of you might be interested in this…he’s really embraced being a dad but have no doubt he’s busting his ass every minute of every day.
