She grew up to be a real bitch! Nearly 12.5 years ago now.



Never worked out if it was a fight to the death or a coitus session I interrupted.





Still one of my favourites from another life.

My first guess is that it came from a ship engine. I have seen a ships piston that was 4 feet wide.. on a bulk fertilizer carrier. Agreed, my new Donks slugs wouldn't even come close to that bad boy in ya back yard. Fully Schick maaaate

Nope. Until now, it’s been like the emperor’s new clothes. No one said anything because we all thought the issue was on our end.

Tapatalk has been hit and miss with its image hosting for a bit now. They also delete photos after twelve months, so it's not worth using if you're posting in the Project Car section.
Their image hosting seems to be offline a fair bit lately.

This is a pic from one of the transport depots that I go to on a weekly basis.

I tried to pat it once... nearly took my arm off. Seriously.

The owner said afterwards that if she wants a pat, it must be on HER terms...
