Nick getting out of Francine through the window because the door latch was malfunctioningDuring the first spring break after high school, the gang here at Randomland got together and spent $110 on an old, beat up 2wd Toyota pickup truck. Over the course of several years, we cleaned it, broke it, fixed it, and broke it again. It's final resting place seems to be at the far end of the field at Nick's house; may she rest in peace.

 

Through the many ages of the Randomnets (2002-present), we have provided you with giant, uselessly long stories of Francine. Check out the stories below!

S-10 Blazer Stories

in

This page will contain links to project write-ups relating to Nick's Chevy S-10 Blazer. Occasionally referred to as the Hobomobile, this vehicle is small, agile, and gloriously underpowered by a 2.8L General Motors V6 engine. Its 1986 styling gives it the aesthetic appeal the woodland creatures simply can't resist!

Um, Nick added some "custom electronics" to the Blazer a few weeks ago. The goal is to get the vehicle hooked up with a power inverter that runs on it's own battery. He said he'd put up some sort of how-to about it, but it is yet to be seen.

A Little Note about the Suriboka Stories

The stories and tales of the Super Rice Boy Kart will be returning some time within the next few weeks. They were poorly hacked together; I will try to spruce them up a bit...and add tons of pictures, of course! As far as progress on the beast...it has been years (literally) since we made any real effort to work on it. I'd like to say the project is not dead, but who really knows.
