New member...Colorado owner

carbuster · May 6, 2005

I just joined today, but have ventured here from time to time as a guest. Been a long time member over at coloradofans.com. I'm currently in the AF as an F-15 crew chief/instructor now, stationed at Eglin AFB, FL, but I'm from North Carolina, so I love my Tarheels and Panthers. Been doing this for 8 years now. This is a pretty cool site, lots of good info. So here's my little green bundle of joy. I've had it for a year now, and done a couple things to it...Maganflow exhaust, K&N Aircharger, billet grille and bowtie, BFG All Terrain T/A KOs, and a totally redone stereo system. Don't mind the first pic, it was done with a horrible camera.

Looks good, man. Welcome to the site!

carbuster · May 7, 2005

Thanks. I just lifted the front end this morning (torsion bar crank) a little cause I was getting a little tired of the way it sat lower. Now it has a better stance.

Good call. I love the ride sooo much more after I cranked the torsion bars up. No more nose dives when you slam on the brakes!

Here's a couple shots of it now after the TB crank.

Yep, finally decided to become a member, instead of just a guest. I wondered how many of the others were members here too.

Thanks. Yeah this is the largest base in the AF, so it takes a little getting used to. Is your uncle still here?

Yes,kinda'.He just recently retired from the Air Force after 25 years of service,But he has a civilian job on the base now.So he's still on it everyday!

I might be heading down there this summer to visit him and my aunt (there oldest daughter is graduating from Fort Walton Beach H.S.) If I do I'll let you know,maybe you can show me around the F-15's? Ah,Power!!
