Title: Fun in the mud
Post by: Maiden Hell on November 06, 2004, 07:32:19 AM
Went out this morning to pick up a new cordless phone from a local ebay seller north of the city when I noticed they are tearing up the roads up here to repave them...

When in Rome.....  ;D

Uh oh...no wonder my ride hasn't felt secure when I bring up the parking brake... SHIT this is going to cost a lot of money to replace. :(

usually i get a lot more mud on my vit.

and has anyone noticed, that black grilles on vits are very common, and has nothing to do with the colour of the body.

Mud? what's that?

(http://pic5.picturetrail.com/VOL72/842221/5455528/72366640.jpg)

This is a rig that was running around a local club's property this summer. It's actually got a white/grey camo paint job... LOL!

I like playing in the mud whenever I get the chance!:

Dude, that eye-irritant.com works fantastic, but how long do pics stay on there for?  And how many can it hold, I see there are quite a few files on there already.

Not sure about the number of pics, but that's all it's being used for right now, so about 100mb. I go through ever month or so and delete the old images (which is why my sig image stopped working :P)

Mine was body color/colour  ;) that
is until I replaced it, and didn't repaint it

I'm planning on paint, and I think I'll do
the grill and some flames, white into blue

Budget wash method.

1) Find suitably deep river.

2) Drive in. (note: depending on depth keep motor running !  ;))

3) let Mother nature do the hard work  ;D

4) open door and let the "flow" clean the inside too  :o

5) Drive out (this can be the hard part) make sure you have a strap and a friend near by  ;D

6) hey presto !!! all clean  ;D

This truck is a vibrant purple color under that splatter.  I had the roof open and the rear windows out when I did that, too.  There are some lovely mud snots baked on the inside of the truk.
