Car: 1989 LeBaron GTC TII & 1991 Stealth R/T TT Rep Power: 8 | A few weeks back I was testing a 30" for a customer and and decided I want a 30" now. It emasculated my 22" which is used to think was good sized.

Car: 2008 Scion tC LFS Status:  Rep Power: 29 | As some of you know from this thread, I've been looking into buying one of these. Well, I got it today and here it is: ...Wow my phone's camera is useless. Well, I can't be bothered to go take pics with a real camera, but I will say that I am happy with the purchase. To make up for the lack of a photo, I present you with this:

Car: 1969 Mustang Coupe - 01 Grand Prix GTP Rep Power: 14 | This counts as a new toy right? Bought it a few weeks ago, spent about 2 weeks restoring it, the electronics inside weren't working and people I contacted who know these old machines and work on them have never seen one with them, so it's apparently quite rare. Regardless I had to search for a while to find the right little electromagnetic solenoids to make it work properly, I had to resolder in 4 new rectifier diodes on the small board, and build a wiring harness for the lights (which was the easy part). Pulled lots of the mechanism from the back to clean and adjust, so now the machine works as close to original as possible.    And a short video of it working (the jackpot is activated about 1:24 in):
