I don't know what hell nasty dirty is that. It was damn hard to remove them. At least, it was very good right now. I only plan clean right side only because I knew it will take long time to clean everything. I'm too tired and plus I want to watch truck race at Talladega Only one thing that I didn't clean headlight. This one is suck so I plan get new headlight. What do you think of cleaning project?

dirty


remove some parts


in middle of cleaning



done! (I know I don't have brace but it was clean so I don't feel like to put it back lol) wow, it is very shiny by sun lol.. That's how I want to look like. Oh I did wash and dry because I never wash winter beater for 5 months. Yes, I'm bad owner but at least they are shiny again.

I wish I had a winter beater to clean...

Good job.

I've yet to wash my truck since I moved here lol. It's been over a year

Wow, I just noticed where your power steering pump is located. Must be nice to have it where you can actually get to it.

Indeed. Considering I need lines, and to rebuild my rack with new seals....


What did you use to clean that palsut?

A faster way would've been to spray everything with de-greaser and bust out the garden hose. thats how I started with mine, so I keep it clean enough that all I have to do is dust it off once a while.

I totally missed that. Get this I've never checked mine I bet there's quite a few on here with the L36/L67 who haven't either.

yeah i havent checked myn, i will just wait until she goes lol, try useing simple green to clean everything up i used it last weekend turned out amazing

lol this thread is now turn into steering wheel thread :p

I try use de-greaser but it is NOT work. This dirt might be like over 3 years. I use my steam cleaner to clean it out as much as I can then I wipe it out. It helps. I will have more pictures whore soon. Since I already mentioned that I did wash and dry but I didn't took picture so I decide I'm going take some pictures.

close up


My summer car already clean since last week. I don't have any rain last week so it is still clean. So I'm boring and decide play with winter beater. I didn't clean this wheels. Someday later.

notice my summer car exhaust is perfect if I'm standing all way behind this winter beater? It is not exhaust fault.

just my favorite pictures




I'm not looking forward left side lol

Palsut I think you missed the memo on winter beaters. They're "beaters" You don't spend unneccasary time on em You do good work.

Yeah, you are right but I just want to make winter beater look nice. I don't want be one of single fat woman who abuse grand prix

I already have some plan for my winter beater.

I will have front bumper, trunk lid (see yellow line), spoiler and right fender paint later. It will be at FLIP's house when I drop my summer car at MA next year. I will use some parts on rental truck with car tow trailer.

My plan list for winter beater

1. paint some parts (already mentioned above)
2. roof rail (yes, I have other one )
3. headlight with clear corner
4. maybe tint window (still undecide)
5. tint taillights
6. my shiny tri-spoke wheel when I will install 18" wheel on my summer car
7. paint grille (maybe get lower grille too)
8. add plate cover (already have one)
9. make you all jealous that I have two cool cars lol

lol true you beat me. I always want have motorcycle but I'm deaf. My family don't want me ride it if I couldn't heard like honk or something happen to me if I got any accident. I never ride motorcycle (no kidding). I always want to. I'm wonderful driving on my both cars. I figure I will be wonderful drive motorcycle. I only got one car accident which it is my fault since 2001. I have been driving clean since then.
