I am a little sad that this radio has to go.

It's just crazy to me that people buy and drive vehicles that are that rusted.
It's a whole different world where you live. Rust just happens here. There are ten year old pickups around here with rusted out wheel wells.

Just unfathomable to me.
I thought the newer trucks were coated...and I thought they stopped using salt...years ago

Cool burnout pics. It's moving and good enough to Do that. Winter dry grasses light up quick. I was welding exhaust last winter and some slag fell in the grass next to me. I didn't notice it at first but noticed the smell wasn't the same weld stink I was used to. I was Almost on fire where it had started up next to Me. I quick patted it out as it was spreading fast already. Amazing how fast it moves. Glad it wasn't your house just the grass Around it. I bet you panicked for a minute though til you got home.

Newer trucks rust in Ohio, especially rockers and rear wheel arches. They still love to dump salt for even the smallest flurry.
Installed a set of Rally center caps today. It takes a long time to clean the argent silver off the mounting area.

White spoke with center cap.
Need to install some lockouts, but I'm not sure if I'm going to swap axles or not.

Alas, the emblem broke when I hauled it over to Lindsay.
Here is a better shot of the wheels.
Of course I had to flex it out a little.
Then I decided driving down the cut wasn't a bad idea.
I was wrong. It was a horrible idea. It has only front brakes right now, and doing a "stoppie" or whatever it is called is a lot less scary on a bike I would imagine, than it is in a Blazer.
Hence this being the only picture I took going down.

That looks way too good.

And wtf, they have snow in Georgia and Florida but not in Nebraska?

No you may not have the 400 emblem. That is the main reason I used that grille.
As for the snow, we are in a drought. Hence the grass fire.
