Installed the fender rubbers, and gave it first coat of Linseed oil.

Also found a used set of 245/45R20 those are 4" smaller diameter. A free 2" lowering.

Reproduction visors were 45$ each. **** that. Free 99 is better.

That was my QC plate from 2004 and my NS trailer plate from 2009.

I still have not decided whether i like the Patina Look or a Paint Job on Rat Rods

The Patina Look seems to make mistakes jump out at you.

Paint seems more like a Cover Up on Rat Rods
