Ok, now we're up to July of last year.

Back into the mountains we went - wearing hula shirts and watering plants

I added a snorkel to keep dirt and water out of the airbox from cutting out the wheel liners.
I wanted a stainless one for more flow for a turbo down the line, but this Safari snorkel came up locally for $75.

Sweet. I had an old Nikon D80. Broke about 6 months ago. Haven't upgraded yet 😐

The new technology is making it more and more appealing for me to lay down way too much money for one.
 
Hit the flares on a rock.

Really not bad whatsoever, but I was upset with myself and then tried to fix it by painting the flares silver to match the body moulding. I did this on my last 80 and it turned out great. This time however, the paint no where near matched and looked terrible with the red and then I was upset with myself that I made the flares even worse. I only did the fronts before I realized my mistake.
 
Messed around with @Squeegee 's light forces

Found an imported W123 Mercedes 230E and bought it. This one was imported from Russia. I love these old Mercedes.
I still have it if anyone wants to take it off my hands...

While I was at it, I painted the front flares back to red with some leftover touch up paint I had.
