I’ve recently fished on a 40 ft. Salmon Troller with no sign of a noose loop on any of the mooring lines... usually wound around a cleat when docked.  

We’re 45 miles north of SF, and I’ve had to commute down to my brother in law’s salmon boat in SF a few times since the outbreak.  Smooth sailing both ways ‘til Petaluma.

You’ll come to see he has really nothing of worth to say...

Anecdotal, but I’ve heard there will be some obvious similarities between the new Bronco Sr. and the LR Defender... 

I thought this was poignant...

I'd love to take my rig in the snow or muck sometime when it's roadworthy, but we all know IH steel has a the ability to dissolve when wet like spun sugar.  All I'd have left is a paint/undercoat shell.

I’ve had great success in MN with Bosch wipers.  Three years before I sold my S70, and they were fine.  Car was religiously garaged though.

I think you’re spot on in Merc wanting a Brit in their stable.  Maybe import/export benefits?

Neutral: I’m waiting on NOS door hinge screws to arrive for my 800.  My doors will properly align and shut for the first time since I got it.  I’m looking up weatherstrip install tips and trying to figure out some wiring bugaboos (all self-imposed, as I wired the thing) and determined to find someone who can flare…

Undercoated and massaged some creases from my front fenders, managed to get 23 of the 24 fifty-odd year old hinge screws removed without much issue, surprisingly.

lol Sounds like your boss is an idiot.

My cousin has a ‘66 Valiant (I think) that’s been in his garage for a decade just waiting til he has time, I guess.  Neat car.

I’d say this is a great project to donate to any High School that still has an automotive mechanics class.  Use it to instruct how to repair every aspect of a car... or teach a restomod class at a CC with this as a donor.  It’s clean and not hard to find parts for.

Scout 800 owner here. Do tell about hard-to-find parts and four-figure “like new” body panels. My rear axles are made of unobtainium and even though I live out west, I’m undercoating everything I can reach just in case.  I can’t wait to insure it for replacement value.

I’ve fiddled with the bracketry on a pair of rear 07 XC-90 seats (that fold flat and have the tilt-slide function to access the 3rd row) and shoehorned them into the front of my Scout 800. Comfy as the day is long, and remarkably adaptable to an older vehicle. There’s a healthy layer of modern urethane to quell any…

We bought a lot of Ford stock as well. Here's to hoping!

My MIL got her deposit back after the PedoGuy bullshit.  She’d had it.

Toddlers tend to bring their rattles everywhere they go, just in case nobody pays attention to them for a few minutes...

I switched my wipers from vacuum to electric on my Scout... not particularly easy or cheap.
