    Hey all, thought I'd start a build thread just to start marking my progress and keeping track of everything I get done. Don't expect greatness here.

    First thing I noticed was that the pup was having quite the time riding around town. So I cut some cheap rubber carpet from the hardware store to fit in the back. Seems perfect, its rubberized on the bottom so she doesn't slide around at all now and I can stow it real neatly behind the seat whenever I don't have her with me.

    Changed out the plugs. They all looked like smashed asshole. I'm assuming all original. Gaps were all around 70mm. Glad I got it done though.

    Since I had it off anyway, changed the filter. Not terrible, but I had already bought the damn thing so whatever.IMG_3102.jpg

    Most likely original plugs. Factory is usually half NGK, half Denso. No one replaces them that way.

    Rick Sanchez is the name of a character in the show "Rick and Morty". I don't know your style, but its basically the greatest show ever made. You can watch it here if interested. And yes, I am Kris.

    Bought the truck with a busted tail light. Still functional, but thrashed. Decided to swap them out. Found some rust around the old damage and decided to hit it with some sanding, primer, and a paint pen. Doesn't look pristine but hopefully it won't rust anymore. Also dig the new tails.
