I BELIEVE THIS WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME!

Thayer picked out this keychain for John. Actually, we think he really wanted it for himself, but we're trying to convince him he'd be better off waiting for it...say another 13 years or so! Maybe he'll get the keys thrown in, too. The cool locking gas cap was donated to us by a fellow Studebaker enthusiast (see, we DO take donations!). Who says you can't get a free gas cap anymore?

Remember the black rubbery stuff from beyond? Well, today it met its match.....

With the help of a coarser wire brush, John braved the nasty stuff and WON! It's hard to tell from the pictures, but it looks and feels one thousand times better and smoother. The multicolored effect is deceiving. It's really cleaning up nicely. On a side note, we think today was the first day since we got the truck that we did NOT see a spider. Now, John did see a WEB, so it may just be that the not-so-little guys are hiding and plotting for a mass act of revenge...
