dear line x

our 1989 California model 5 speed diesel (OEM) had an undercoating from the
factory that was very thick and well stuck to the underside
it also had this stuff under the paint on the bottom panel all around ...
like a rock guard ... that stuff was amazingly tuff too ....
gee I sure miss that van
sniff sniff
