Hi Nick

yours has better plennum vents and top subframe supports

but shit man mine has none around the screen front or back

alright yous have convinced me to fix mine

Hi Blacky mine is Wedgewood Blue 585- 0115

I am going to try and figure out how to change the name of the post
to the name my wife gave it last night
"Rusty the trailer Queen"
due to its rust obviously and the fact for 14 years every where it has gone has been on a trailer

thanks
wayne
