    'PROUD' Owner of a 1991 Caprice Station wagon (y)

    Just recently installed a DrawTite Class 3 hidden hitch, transmission cooler

    Only thing missing on this is 4x 4 lol ;)

    Awesome Car - Originally from Alberta CANADA where they don't use salt on roads - originally bought 7 used by RCMP as K9 unit vehicle.

    305 FI - PWR LOCKS, HAND-WIND WINDOWS -A/C

    Currently working on body [new high gloss block] and tinting windows - hoping to sandblast some of my work on side windows.

    Cheers,

    glassman

    sugar on roads....hmmmmm

    not sure they use sugar ... but in Ontario they use sand & salt ... out west [Alberta] they use gravel of all things...now I know why I saw brand new & older vehicles ALL with cracked windshields :49:
