@tornadoalleycruiser gifted me a set of stickers as well. I’m using what I need and passing the rest to @megolfer and @copilot

Don’t forget to take that clear transfer paper off the top of the blue and white valve adjustment decal.
 
Them there are some purdy red seatbelts Nolan....
 
@Doctor do Little , got this stuff you suggested in and applied one can.

It looks like I just sprayed chain lubricant all over the underside of the Goat.

Do I let it soak in for a few days then wipe off the excess? Seems like this is going to attract dirt as is.

Don't wipe off the excess - it will collect dust and form a nice greasy film that will protect. You need film thickness to prevent rust.

Nolan, as said before (SteveH) don`t wipe it off.

What I would do in the future with the Fluid film.
Would spray it again next year (2019) and than 2021 again.
I know you have an evil humidity in your area.

Cool. Thanks. I look forward to spraying this inside the frame of my FJ60. It’s the thing that needs it the most in my fleet.

I really hosed the old leaf springs the most. I’ll going to flex them out and get this stuff up in the packs good.

I got the sand and dirt out of my ears and eyes and took my much better 1/2 out for the local cancer gala.

I was up early with the scraper making a final push.

3 hours later I’m able to see all the steel and aluminum under here.

I’m debating a pressure wash but it’s cold today. I think I’ll wait on that.

Super happy to have this beat down behind me.

Looks like you are drawn to patina of many sorts e.g gala pic background. We really enjoy what you share about goat.

I see she's the 'drum' brake model? :D

I assume your talking about my rig, and not Nolen’s way-better half? :p

I’m too lazy too put the wheels back on. The “drums” are to keep the weather off the drums so I don’t have to beat them off again due to rust aka nature’s glue. I’ve got to replace the tires anyhow and I need to pick up one more steelie with clips. Once I have that I’ll get tires and put the wheels back on so I can then push the rig into my new shop, once that’s complete and the snow is gone. Crap, too many conditions :bang:
