    turn this into personal auto shop?

    I would say it depends on how redneck you are - don't be offended, I'd definitely go the redneck route. If you're planning on a lift then you'd need to pour a pretty solid slab to install one since I wouldn't expect the trusses or posts to support that kind of weight. And if you're pouring...

    C-Channel: To Replace or Not Replace

    I'll yield to others with more experience than me but those look pretty decent. Probably better than mine. Unless you're planning on going all dukes of hazzard with your 60, you're probably good not to replace that just yet. When you are ready to reinforce it, trail tailor makes a nice kit...

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    Yeah, let's go with that. It's totally not because I was irresponsible when I was his age and treated my old mazda like a rally car.

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    Could have been with as much stalling and grinding as he did but no. I've still burnt out more clutches than he has.

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    The oldest reacquainting himself with the manual transmission.

    Look at this pathetic creature shamelessly begging for some popcorn.

    Factory Leather Seats

    I'm no expert on the different factory options but those look too good to be original. I'd bet they've been reupholstered at some point. Were they vinyl originally? I'm not aware of that being an option.

    She's getting a bit big for the kayak but if she doesn't mind, I don't either.

    Welcome. We're all suckers for more pics. Which one do you own now? The bottom pic? Rust doesn't look too bad.

    Frame/undercarriage rust advice

    You have a fair bit of grime under there but that's probably protective. What we can see doesn't look too terrible. You mention bubbles in the paint on the rear quarter panels. If you buy this, address that straight away. It looks quite good though.

    Chainsaw advice please

    After my last husky gave out I bought an echo timberwolf with 24" bar. That's been ~3 years and I've been very impressed with it so far. I've cut up some fairly big oaks and cottonwoods and lots of smaller cedars. The price to performance ratio was spot on for a chainsaw that gets a fair bit...

    Those are great prices. I may get one for working with power tools back in the woods.
