Ordered up a new front fender. Rust bubbles are forming and the return lip is starting to disintegrate. Good thing I don't drive it in the salt anymore. Could be repaired, but it will just come back.
Washed and took her out for a drive.
Replaced air filter. Cleaned MAF, IAC, and throttle body for the first time in the car's 130k miles. MAF and IAC weren't really bad at all. Throttle body valves were naaaaaaasty.

New rear tires, Firestone Destination ST, 255/55/18. Had to have them TODAY, no other choices locally.
2004 DTR Marauder, Built 26 February 2004, Inservice: 02 July 2004 Retired from DD 17 July 2008. Survived the cut, 28 April 2012. Back as a DD as of 18 November 2012.
Picked up a nice Police Cruiser at a flea market for $10.
I really dig the shotgun. Car is made of metal, not cheap plastic. Front wheels and steering wheel turns too. Heavy. Not a collector but I had to have it.

The unicorn left the comforts of its car cover, battery tender, and garage for a cruise today.

Keeping a black car clean is not a hobby. It's a part-time job.
Support the troops.
Got SB to start but of course there are still issues. Started a thread
