    Saw this and thought it was cool.

    Most if not all these trucks came without bumpers from factory. Dealers put them on depending on which bumper the customer wanted

    Charcoal canister delete?

    It doesn’t hurt to keep it. It keeps gas fume smell down in garage. But if you do delete it put a fuel filter on it up front or back by the tank but keep it higher than tank. Or plug line and get a vented gas cap. There is also a valve style vent in case of roll overs out there.

    Door Panel Advice Needed

    Looks like someone’s rebuild/painted panels is just peeling. That is a high ware spot. All the trim, strap, insert and armrest will come off and can be repainted.

    Windshield pinch weld / frame

    Mine was the same way. I wire wheeled it off. Just put some tape around outside to help protect what you don’t want to get. Then clean off and wipe down with acetone. Then paint with a self etching paint
