thanks lol.

youre right, its not really a beater, i guess any winter dd ive had has been called that. If i can manage to fix the rust around the windshield and back window along with the other various spots and make it look half decent i may have to give it another nick name.




On a completely different note, does anyone know wheat size bolts (size, thread and pitch) fit into the top of the frame horns at the front of the 80? There are 2 holes at the top of each horn that have nuts welded inside the frame that id like to use for the bumper. Using the 3 holes on the outside of the frame, the 2 tow hook mount bolts on the bottom and said top bolts would make 12 - 14 mount points and would be plenty strong.




I made an appt. for the exhaust today and got the front tires balanced. It rides a little better now but new(er) tires are gonna be needed. If only I could get my 15's on there I'd be set for winter. Dude that had it said he got 15" rims to fit on the front but the back wont go. I tried the other day and the rim slides over the studs but then stops short of the WMS because it hits the caliper.

Anyways, havin lots of fun. Might start to cut up the steel for that bumper today. Kind of wishing my plasma would find its way home to make things easier.
