    Are there tow-tabs on that front bumper? I've heard the expression drag racers use, "cut the tree down" (for a good light), but you'd really need to cut that tree down. Butch/56sedandelivery.

    You've "stumped" me! When I found my truck it had a similar accesory but it was between the bumper and grille. I "woodn't" knock it. Maybe just "leave" it alone. Maybe some smart "fellers" can do something with it. :D

    Redneck anti-theft device? :D
     
  12. Looks like nice bits on the front clip. Wonder what the rest of the car looks like?

    From the size of the tree, I'd venture this car has been in that spot for about 30 - 40 years.

    This is one car that could NOT be sold as "ran when parked", I'm guessing.

    I can hear it now, "Well sonny, I'll sell you the car but I don't want my tree damaged".

    I'm kinda pining for it, it just needs a little "sprucing" up...

    I'd better log off... I love them mills.
