Oh, and for the record, I drove it from Chi-town back down to Olney. And, it "stopped' (notice the bunny ears) before the brake change, it just didn't stop well. The rotors were actually so pitted, chunks of the rotor started coming off as Bart and I were trying to pull them off. Skry to think that I drove that shxt all the way down here.

Oh yeah, some jerkhole backed his truck up into my fender.. that still pisses me off. I can't remember if I told you guys or not, yet, though. Pretty much, the damage was secluded to the fender and nowhere else, that's the plus side.

If I ever get his information.. I'm going to hunt his *** down and beat him the fuxk up with a lead pipe!

At least it's only the fender, and I can just unbolt that and replace it.. but, it's finding the replacement part that's going to suck.. I can just feel it!

I would thing you should be able to find one in the same color from a wrecker somewhere..

Don't buy repop body panels, they will not fit.

so i'm hashing out ideas for my new kitchen floor whenever i get the extra money for it. what do you think of this



it's multi-color slate with a pinwheel pattern to it. i'm in love with stone and i really like the natural variations of color. it wouldn't be square with the walls, i'd install it on a 45*.

Oh man, I just went and saw my dads truck in person today. That thing is thrashed. I have pics up in my thread if you haven't seen them already. The pics really don't do it justice though.
