    Same here.
    Most of those old smoggers rusted away to oblivion.
    IIRC, they also had an Impala and Vega Spirit of America.
    Never liked the Cow Catcher bumpers that started in '73, although it was easy to put a pre-73 bumper and trim on.

    Nice wheels on the '74

    Finished the starter job (broke the air intake hose so I got to find one) and headed home to work on the truck. It was raining when I got home.
    The sun is back out so I can gt some stuff done.

    Almost forgot. I had to find a small piece of hose so I took a ride to Advance Auto in Clinton (and then to NAPA), when I pulled into the Advance parking lot there was a 2nd gen regular cab, black with a small lift. Somebody on here?
    Wasn't able to take a pic, had to get the starter job finished.

    Great week for my kids to play at the pool at grandmas. And this is one of the very view times of the year I enjoy being in an office setting.

    Ordered up some new wheel bearings from the dude on the forum. Should be here Wednesday. Waiting on an invoice to pay up for some nice new lower control arms. Writing down a parts list for seals and lca hardware to get all of that ordered up.

    She's pretty low all the way from hogback to the Connecticut, looks a little fuller in Tariffville due to the squeeze of the gorge.

    "No animal testing" My guess is nobody wanted to apply it to the animal.

    Dirt king Lower control arms paid for and ordered. Wont be here until September so I’ll patently wait.

    I saw some water leaking down the inside of my rear window. Redid my third brake light earlier this year because I saw that leak before; apparently wasnt the third brake light. Pulled the rear headliner down enough to see and its coming from the top corner- passenger side- where the white clip is.

    Any ideas how to fix it without getting the whole window removed and reinstalled?

    no idea but... try making sure there isn't any blockages below that clip. If water can run past it fast enough it may not come in. See what you can blow out from around the window working from the bottom to the top. Hopefully pine needles & little leaves come shooting out & clear the channels the water is supposed to be flowing down.
