I was thinking the same thing about the rust.... it looks like it is going to fall apart! Lucky for me, the only thing rusting is the very end of my exhuast pipe. Which when I remember to do, I'm going to cut off. I figure it would be better to have less of the pipe hanging down anyways.
Hmm.. you know.. judging by the tread on the rear tires... I wouldn't be surprised if that is a junker. He probably just threw the skid on it because it was quick and easy.

I'm having him bend the "ears" up on the skid about 30 deg. and then it's coming my way.
Mine does NOT look like that either (rust). Hydro - I haven't been able to devote any time to finalizing my rear bumper design. It will NOT look like Adrians though - I have some ideas that I haven't seen done by anyone yet...

yeah i guess i am just used to the 99 which doesn't have much rust.
i might be getting a 84 with 6" lift and 36s if i can get through to the guy. that will probably be rust heaven. pics will be up if i get it.
