Good looking truck! I feel the same way each spring after I uncover my pride and joy.

Me too. Allthough it seems like its going to be a loooooong winter until I drive it again. Don't forget to put some fabric softner sheets in it to keep the critters out. Downy works great, keeps them from moving in. They must not like the smell.



Lets hope for an early spring!

Good advice...I think. I never heard that.

Yep, I tried mothballs, but found that mice don't seem to be affected by them. There were little mouse poops right next to them! A fella on this list suggested Downy fabric sheets, so I tried them out last year. No mouse poops. I put them all over the place, inside the body tubs, around the entrance to the barn, etc. Smells a lot better than mothballs too.

Good luck!

First time I ever heard about the fabric softener sheets vs mice.
Thanks for the info. I wonder if they work for rats too? A rat
chewed all the spark plug wires in two on rthe right bank of my
brother's Jeep engine. We had to do some field repairs with nails
and tape, before we could return home from Death Valley.

As a side benefit of the Fabric Softener Sheets the ride becomes more
enjoyable. Especially on Washboard Roads. ;-)

Everybody have a great Thanksgiving. And don't forget to eat turkey for
Chris.
