Is that all you retired guys do is groom trails driving rigs like these, work on cars throughout the night when insomnia sets in and drink beer all winter long?

One needs to set reasonable goals in order to accomplish them!

Sounds like you got an old stock set of covers and not the later renditions made in the 80's where the part numbers had changed. I'd like to find an NOS set of the ones shown above. But nope...gotta stop shelling out the dough as I've been spending away like a drunken sailor.

Somebody else said that a month ago and the phrase has now stuck. (lol)

That's what a friend of mine used to say.

Don't worry about money, you can always word hard and make more.
It's pretty mild up here for weather this week so I'll likely spend the next couple days making more progress on the car. Today I'll continue with cleaning the underside. With the mild temps I'll be able to pop the doors open to clear the fumes and keep some fresh air about the shop. It's a little harder to do when it's well into the minus temps, but the next couple days are all above freezing here. More to come...

Just got around to pulling the rear clips off the rear frame rails today. Clips are again blue and they did leave blue paint on the bare frame where the clips were removed from. Both clips have the rear tabs but they were both folded in and were not engaged into the holes of the rear rails. Was this the norm on the rear clips? I always thought the tabs would have been engaged but these were not. Pics of the two fuel line clips just removed.
