Whazzat? A full-size Greyhound or Afghan on the rear, too?

What a beauty!

M'daddy woulda' had a "politically incorrect" expression to describe that one!

Never had to deal with snow and ice. When I wasn't living in So. Cal, or Fresno, I was in south Florida, or the middle of Texas. So I'll take your word for it Marc.

Hmm, good clues.

I'll guess Sioux City? Stones throw from the baseball field.


Edit, just looked at your location...

When I purchased my truck, the hood had a spot where a deep scratch had been repaired (badly) with touch-up paint. Since my purchase, the scratch seemed like it was getting worse such that it appeared that rust was growing through.

I sanded the repair down to the metal where it appears that pitting had already set in. See attached:

I have little sense of how to properly repair a scracth like this but I'd welcome feedback.
