Hey Russ!  Yuri has a point! In the photos your driver's side frame rail looks bad. Is it as bad as the photos show?  Gus

It is bad, but not yet as bad as his!  The other side is rotting as well. I have access to a lift anytime I need one, so fixing it while it was in the air this time wasn't necessary. Big decisions have to made as to wether or not this car will get fixed, or a rust-free donor car will get all of the Super Roo's parts.

They work for heat evacuation.  When the fan kicks on, you can really feel the heat being pushed out through the holes. That and they look cool!  :cool:

I uploaded another clip of the new exhaust.  I was by myself, so it's not exactly what I wanted, but it'll work for now!
