    yeah but 97% coverage will cover a lot of that and it still should show the moon moving in front of it hang on...

    If you are wanting to see it without glasses or even film it for sure, just project it onto the ground.

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    in '94 we just poked a hole in a piece of paper and looked through that. will that not work?

    Got the skid plates and they're painted, but some of the paint on the ifs skid peeled off... I'm installing them tomorrow so I guess I'll just spray it while it's on the truck

    also just a heads up. if you have dogs outside, make sure to bring them inside during the eclipse so they dont get eye damage
