    Did you remove the pic from this post?
    Thought I was losing it when I couldn't find the older pic of your quarter panel lol
    Is that it in the new post?

    Ordered new rear wheel studs for the 9". Can't beat $0.55 apiece for Wagner studs. Gotta love RockAuto wholesale closeout prices.

    Fixed the passenger door problem of locking and not opening with some lube and a mini bungee cord.

    Started to look into why the radio only plays static and knobs don't do what they should. Hope the radio isn't broken.
