Poor little portable
#1

I picked up this 42-854 a while back. It was a very sad looking portable! Till I got Laffman replacement grille. Now it can hang out with all of it portable friends and not be laughed at! Contact you know who at you know where to be Laffmanized!

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

It is worth the $3000.00 I lost just to hear you say that...   Icon_lolno

The lighter actually looks real nice on yours.
