Ya, a hard hit 4 sure!
Justin how many inches of snow? Looks like it's coming my way. Maybe a little north, but we have winter storm warnings out.
Cowboy, looking forward to see update pics of the Torino!
RJ, Glad to hear your Shadow is up and running again.

yha, the first time i saw that sedan i felt sick. i hate it when something like that happens to someones pride & joy. the good news is that most of the body appears solid & straight, add an aftermarket front clip ('glass or steel) and a new frame from a late model donor vehicle ( like a 2wd S10?) and paint, & you have a nice streetrod again. worst case scenario, a new firewall/ cowl section will need to be welded in. it would make a cool surf wagon for ya, space'bum mike
yha, but does the tractor have heat? lol, that truck did, for what it was worth. the cab floor , rockers, doors, ect were so rotted that most of the heat wound up outside anyway
but the frame was solid. my dad got that one for free YEARS ago, it had sat for about 17 years but still fired up with nothing but a jump start. we invested a total of $0 the first year, and a total of $25 the next for gas
sold it, regretted it, wanted to buy it back ( it was sitting), but we were a month late. scrap man got it
but scince then i've managed to track down 2 more like it, both 4x4 but the rarer D500 model--- only a couple thousand of those made, at best.
