Insurance equals stress, head ache, and a $2,000.00 offer for a totalled vintage vehicle that most likely has $10,000.00+ invested in it. Than the a month of submitting comparable vehicles and begging the lords of the insurance companies for an actual fair settlement.
I would take an ugly bumper over dealing with insurance anytime.
Agreed!
And I agree on the ARB on the 60
The lines of the 80 are rounded it looks like an appendage hanging off the front.
And I like the Delta sometimes on black.
It would look a lot better on the 80 if it was closer to the truck.
It also sticks off the front of a 60 way too much.
I degreased with purple power then wipe down with clean shop towels and let it dry in the house for a day. Then self echoing primer and 3 coats of black and two coats of clear. Normally I wouldHow did you clean and prep the valve cover?

Have it powder coated but my guy is 1 1/2 away and high temp engine paint holds up pretty good. The only down side is it’s easily to scratch. Powder coat is much more durable.
Let's see it on the truck.Mounted up drivers side Yotatech gull wing. Seems well built and lighter than expected.
Damn, whoever is in their video must have tiny fingers. The lip on that inside seal is a biatch and nowhere near as easy as they make it look to get it on. Overall a really easy job tho. View attachment 3226939
I've hit 3 deer in the last 10 years.My land cruiser is a stated value policy. No bickering.
I always hear the deer argument. I live in a pretty animal heavy area. I drive a night a lot. I've hit 1 deer in 26 years of driving and it hit the side of my truck. So the odds of a deer strike vs me having to look at that s*** heel bumper aren't close enough in value for me to own one.
I have that on at least two of my vehicles with State Farm.I've hit 3 deer in the last 10 years.
How did you get a stated value policy? What's the insurance company?
I tried and tried to find a stated value policy and could only find one company offering it. But the vehicle had to be kept in a garage and driven less than 5,000 miles a year.
I am with state farm also. I will have to check with them again. Maybe it's different from state to state because state farm definitely told me no stated value policies a few years ago.I have that on at least two of my vehicles with State Farm.
No restrictions. Premium is based on value selected.
I regularly ask my agent to provide a current value on my LC and determine if I want to change to stated value. I do not have that on my LC at this time because it is my DD.I am with state farm also.
