Re: Mona Build
Will it still have pink flames ? Towards the end of the season she started having issues. The 8 yrs. have started to show. Many stress cracks at the hangers.The springs are shot and the bushings are missing,(that would be the death wobble ?) Exhaust is kinked. Radiator at Rausch, Hanging out with you guys is expensive !

Re: Mona Build
Got the tub off and power washed the frame. I could be wrong but , me and the boys are pretty sure We still had Paragon mud in the places you cant get to with the body on ! My , the damage goes on. Right Rear hanger held on by the weight of the jeep. Left rear bushings , missing ! Frame bent in at spring mounts. Left side front a disaster. I could swear I maintained this thing ! Im going to up load some pics tonight. FjR68

Donna said be sure not to put her in the garage...
Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty.

Re: Mona Build
She looks like a gocart without the body. Feelin like jungle gym and a pair of seats might be next. Tryin to get things done before I go in so there wont be as much left. FjR68
