I mounted the block off panel for all the heater core holes I wont need anymore. Used 3M panel adhesive with 1/8" screws to hold it in place, then used a stud welder to plug the holes once it had set up. Taped off and got about half the seams sealed with 2K seam sealer, including the block off panel. Also had the 2 large heater hose holes, a few screw holes from a gun rack and running boards, and then 16 holes on my bed/tailgate from tie downs all welded shut. Sanded the whole cab again for one last shot weather-wise first of next week of epoxy primer. Bottom needs sprayed along with the areas I sanded from all the welding plugs. Then it sits til Spring. Panel blends and looks better in person than the pic. Once everything is covered again alot will disappear.

Yeah that month and a half is brutal. Lol
I get it. The struggle is real. Lived in Phoenix for 2 years. First winter I ran around in shorts and flip flops all winter. 2nd year I wore a hoody and thought it was chilly sometimes! Lol.
Although I resisted the urge to switch to winter oil after the AC didn’t kick in for a week! Haha all in fun. Cheers

Drove it today to run errands(which was actually quite fun) and pick up an extra yard skeleton. So, drove it and decorated for Halloween/neighborhood zombie run.

I hung the passenger door, welded some on the inner fender lower support and put the rear wheels back on so I could move it back four feet. It’s nice to have the doors back on since they were leaning against my super tenere for the past year. Perhaps I will get a nice afternoon for a ride. I’m still trying to finish the paint before winter.

Washed and waxed it as part of winter prep. Those new ceramic waxes are a little different to use, but I like the results....even on my old beat down paint.

Recently got her titled in my name, and called the dealership today to see if there was any chance they could find the correct key code for her, as I can't seem to locate even a single set of the keys for this girl. Welp, as expected, they couldn't go back that far, but they referred me to a locksmith that they work with, and since they referred me to him, he can make a set of keys to fit the existing ignition and lock cylinders. So I'll be investing that $220 or so in the next couple of weeks, then having her towed to my house.
