The next morning I was going to take the truck to work and all of the oil drained out into the driveway. That gunk I blasted away was holding together my rusty oil pan. Had to get the wife to drive me in because the 60 was blocking the rabbit in the garage. That really sucked.
I actually painted the new pan because the Toyota paint sucks and I also used some caulk around the skid plate so that no water can sit in the cracks.

it looks good because i scraped about a 1/4" build up of oil and dirt off of it. and cleaned it with laquir thinner.
