It's been a long time between all the kids activities that I have been able to bang on any metal. I forced myself to work on something today and made some good progress on the drivers side front half of the rear wheel lip.
I haven't read the referenced article from Scraps yet but I have never understood this logic. I have seen it posted a few times. With road crown and not being able to run a perfectly level road(I'm not a believer in flat earth). I am with the logic if it is reasonable, the hood shuts, and the...
