Spring DIY's

Post by Ozzker »

Well its spring, and I know we all have that itch to start working on our trucks again, and I found a handy little list of some cool DIY's for cars so I thought I would post it up, and give us all some motivation to get out there and git-er-done!!

I'm not proud about it, but in my earlier just-got-my-license years on one of our first road trips to the beach we tried the cooler filled with ice + electric fan thing.
