Talk about good old days.
Around here this is the current trend on 4x4 pick ups

Tires stickin' 6" outa the wheel wells and no mud flaps.
My friend Chris built a V8 Vega, narrowest GM diff he could find, wheels with lots of backspace, still had 2" out of the wheel well.
A CHP officer stopped him on an overpass over the I 10 near Ontario Airport for that 2" of tire. Chris looked in his side view mirror, the officer was resting his foot on the tire while he wrote the ticket :rofl: From the off road experience I've had, these new guys take those 4x4s anywhere but sand dunes, like the desert or forests, those $500 rims are toast. Them 40 series tires provide no protection for those rims.
That fad is here too, dumbest f'ing thing I've seen in a while.

The rain let up today so I finished restoring the last cast iron piece from the bunch I got a few months ago. This one is a 3 qt sauce pan and lid. Finding a lid with a pan is rare.

Like most of them, this one was in pretty rough condition when I got it.

But a couple of hours with a wire wheel on my cordless drill and they were well cleaned and ready to season.

I just finished the last coat of seasoning an hour ago. They are ready to cook with!
