The only flaw in your theory is that they can follow you on the road and get it when you park. They're more likely to go after someone driving an expensive car and living in a fancy house......
Not necessarily. People like us....well the no count stealing kind with similar interests. Ones that may actually want your stuff and not just something to sell to get that meth, don't want what fancy people have . They want your ATVs , boats, fishing stuff, tractor, deer stands etc. Now you can steal the rich guys **** and sell it and buy stuff I guess.

Who knows I'm not eyeing anyone's stuff to steal. And yes I'm not a criminal so I'm sure my thinking is not the same as theirs .

Started the column repair. Based on the pinned thread I'm probably going to screw it up. These things are a bit complicated, but hey guess I might end up with a new coulmn if I jack it up bad enough.....

Ya think a feller oughta be able to rebuild one of those - or get one rebuilt - and be able to skip the black paint? Sure right? I wanna see a "natural finish" or somethin. Think it's painted for some reason? Will it turn GrEeN lol.
Do I gotta paint it?

Glad I decided to remove the glass in my 85.... that rust will hide anywhere!
That don’t look too bad.
My truck, that is the only rust on it. And it needs some patching. I attributed it to the screw holes from the visor in the roof, as clean as the rest of the truck is.
Seems “most” trucks, even rust buckets have pretty clean windshield frames and A pillars. Reckon maybe bad prep or someone wheels off the paint while removing the sealant for a windshield replacement causes that?

Had to move it because I needed to chop back some dead bush because it was sticking me when on driver's side front fender.

Noticed that the radiator leak has gotten worse so it looks like I'll be buying a new radiator with electric fans sooner than expected. I wanted to do that anyway but not right now. Lol

Any recommendations on one for a BBC?

Also I found out that my blower motor for the heater works. There's no wire to the pos side of motor. When hit with 12v it kicked on tho.

Need new heater core and figure out how to get the blower to work from inside the cab.
I’m putting in a radiator from a 1997 K2500 Suburban with a 454. I got the radiator and the dual fans from a 2011 C3500 Silverado with the enhanced cooling package for $100 total.

Square body stuff on youtube made one last year. His is pretty good. But I have not done the repair so I can't speak to that but seems detailed and good angles.

Put the good wheels and tires on the '88 so it could be in a photo shoot with the family.

Lol, so you noticed the little 5 year old off playing in the crop field? :)

There's our 10 here, plus one of my nephews right now. My oldest graduates this year and he had to have senior pictures taken and he wanted them with the Suburban. So my wife used that as an excuse to get pictures of all the kids. Plus my father and step mom too, lol.
