Not to nitpick but if you bought the car Dec 21 2007 then how did it sit for 8 months when it's only been like 2.5 days.

Sorry had to point it out. Santa's up late wrapping presents so the date kinda stuck out to me. Looks like your on your way to dirt killer status. I'm afraid to ask about the rear bumper.

BTW what MOS were you. I'm 25B in the 244th EN BN out here in Denver.

Oops! that was supposed to be 2006. Good eyes. I was 11B in E Co 51st (LRS) (ABN) in Darmstadt, Germany. The unit inactivated in July. I was one of the last guys left in the unit. I have a bunch of 25C friends because we had a Commo PLT.

About the bumper:

Nice start to your journal, now hurry up and get the 4 pots for the front. Talk to the Jackson brothers about the conversion.

I have been looking around for some gravel wheels(in anticipation of the new brakes from Jackson Rally) and I noticed they don't have the black team Dynamics anymore. So I am trying to decide between the white and silver. If you look in the first post there is a picture of a prepped car with white wheels(not team Dynamics though). Any thoughts/opinions/suggestions?
