Hello,
I'm from a small town called Mascoutah, IL just outside of St. Louis, MO. Here are some snap shots from this morning. I bought it about a month ago. Trying to track down a couple drive ability issues.

Thanks again for the parts. You really helped me out! I'm a strong believer in when troubleshooting, I need to go back to the way it was originally designed. I was scared that these parts would cost me my first born.

Eventually someone is going to ask for your first born 😉 I love the color, that would have been my choice if the situation were different. I’ve been to the St. Louis area, is the hustler club still there just east outside of st Louis? Haven’t been out that way since 04, damn that’s been awhile.

Yeah the Hustler club is Larry Flints place. I think it's still open. There are a few clubs that have opened in that area. Our governor has closed down all bars restaurants,and casinos starting last night in the state of Illinois. So, I'd call them before I went to partake in a little entertainment. LOL

I'm thinking I want to do with a Burgundy Interior. I've seen someone in NAM with an 06 really nice ox Blood interior.

I can tell you with everything going on, the last thing I would want is a trip to a strip club, here in Ohio they have basically done same thing with bars and restaurants. My work told us to work from home starting last week, kids out of school till April, for now, it’s nuts. Our governor is basically trying to lock Ohio down, which I get, but I’m already itching to get out of the house and I’m 3 business days in 😕

Side note, when we stopped at the gas station across from the hustler club, the gentleman that was working the counter told us not to go any further north than where we were. I’m sure they were probably trying to scare the 4 white boys in their early 20’s but who really never knows.
