I've driven through Massachusetts countless times over the decades, and I know exactly what you're saying. If I lived in MA, then I wouldn't have the car I have, modified the way it is. Of all the northeastern states, MA roads are simply the worst. Way over capacity, and way under maintained.

Really? SC is removing paved roads in the back counties and replacing them with gravel as it's cheaper to maintain. Let me repeat that - we are selling our roads after tearing them out.

I agree. Once my gauge hit 1/4 I fill it up.

Rear differential bushing as well as front diff bushings. Whata headache.

Hmmm... Wonder what that could be? Giant boomerang maybe?

Good luck with the install. Do you plan to use hardware or 3M tape.. or both?

I run mine down below E every time. Because I can. Except for long-distance Interstate travel when a gas station isn't on every exit.

Neither - about 1/2 pound of RTV.

Well, that was the fiberglass one that didn't fit. See my build page. Proper fitting urethane one actually sort of snaps on.

But yeah - body parts woooo.

Starting painting my wheels faces. Still need to be cleared and the lips need to be painted as well. Rose gold hardware should be a nice touch 😍

Have you considered gloss black for the center caps, matching the lip and barrel? Just saying.

Today I went for a drive with the windows down, moonroof open, ginger ale in the cupholders and a beautiful woman in the passenger seat. It was a good day.

Today I cleaned, claybarred and sealed the passenger side rear quarter panel. I'll put a top coat on in a few days after it warms back up.

But yeah... just that one quarter panel. That was it. It looks beautiful, LOL.
