This is a supply engine for a rural corner of Westchester County bordering Fairfield County, CT.  Notice the squirrel tail hard suction on the drivers side.

The republican Trump administration is currently "in power and in bureaucracies".

Again it is important to have facts.  You are only 50% correct.  The republican Trump administration IS in power.

However they are the least bureaucratic administration since Reagan or before.  Hence the fact that the man is hellbent on the deregulation of businesses.  If he were bureaucratic than he would be pressing for the typical oppressive regulation that stifled businesses for the 8 years that Obama was in office.  Why is it that during Obama's tenure, that the economy failed to reach 3% GDP growth during any year of his administration? You realize that no President has had that problem dating back to before the great depression, right?  I will give you the answer... the over regulation and taxation of businesses that need to succeed in order to provide paying jobs.

For anyone else that want to go down the road of... "Why do companies need to make so much money?"... It is simple economics that could have been learned by paying attention to middle school math and history classes.  When people complain that a company made $300 million dollars last year and that some of that money should have gone through higher taxes to support others less fortunate people, do you ever take into account that if a company wants to expand into another state and provide hundreds or thousands of new paying jobs that it might cost $1 billion or more dollars to build a new factory in that state.  How does the company build new factories and create thousands of jobs if we tax the crap out of it.  How does that company borrow money to build a billion dollar factory if it doesn't have the earnings power to qualify for the debt?  Oh and what do we all think our pension plans and retirement accounts are invested in?  If the companies don't make money how do their stock prices perform?  If their stock prices don't perform how do we retire.  I guess we could follow Bernie, the left and the new democratic socialist movement and we can all retire like they do in other parts of the world where socialism will provide them with bread and watered down coffee to eat while we sit in our stained white tee shirts in our worn out chair watching an old crappy TV puking crap at us about how the mother land took care of us.

NO THANKS!!!!!

I don't know you, don't know your political preference (even based on your post I wouldn't presume to label you), and I don't know your socio-economic station in life.  I do know that it is extremely important to have facts when expressing an opinion, otherwise the opinion is baseless.

President Trump never stated that Covid-19 was a hoax (more on this in a moment).  In fact his actions show that he thought it to be the direct opposite.  He banned travel from China very quickly following the discovery that the virus had emanated from there, and that their efforts to contain it were not up to par and their disclosure of information regarding it, was less than forthcoming.  He was lambasted by those who don't like him for doing so, vilifying him as a raciest.  Just imagine if people kept filtering into the United States for weeks during the incubation of the virus, filling wide body jets with 350 or more passengers at a time.  Clearly he didn't take it as a hoax.

If you look at the data regarding China's economic dealings for PPE (personal protective equipment), strangely, they went from being a net exporter of PPE last fall, to a net importer of the same equipment by December.  Why would this be?  A country that typically supplies millions of units of PPE to the rest of the world is now importing the same equipment to their country, weeks before the world is hit with millions of cases of a virus, the genesis of which can be pinpointed back to China.

Now the hoax.  What the media has selectively declined to cover, is something called context.  Yes when people gather in a room for a discussion and no one bothers when they retell the story to add the all important details of what was being implied by the discussion.  It is absolutely impossible to ignore, unless you are the media of course, the context in which this was said.  If you stand on the words alone, yes he was saying that Covid-19 was fake.  If you edit the rest of this post in a particular way you could make it seem like I think it was a fake.  When you control the delivery of information you can make the story say anything you want.  Now, if you dig, you will see that the context of the conversation, given the historical media circus and impropriety of the previous administration and their proxies, that contextually President Trump was referring to Covid-19 as the next hoax that the Democrats and the media will pin on him in an attempt to disparage him.  Russian collusion with the Trump campaign was a hoax (proven by the Muller Report), quid-pro-quo with Ukraine was a hoax as was proven during the impeachment trial, General Flynn's violation of the Logan Act was a hoax which is being proven as we speak with the release of documents showing that there was a concerted effort by Obama proxies Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Struck, Page, McCabe and more.  Where did the referral to the Southern District of NY go with regard to Trump and the raid on his personal attorney Michael Cohen's office.  No where, other than Cohen going to jail for offenses unrelated to President Trump.

The facts surrounding President Trump are that leftover officials, on record in various ways (text, transcripts, testimony etc) from the Obama administration, tried relentlessly to make sure he didn't get elected, and once he was they orchestrated a web of deceit to get him thrown out of offices.  Hoaxes if you will.  Probably the saddest part of all of it is that General Flynn, a good man who served his country for decades, was bankrupted, forced to sell his house and had his reputation ruined.  Honestly other than a book deal, even with his case being thrown out, I doubt he can work again.

The lesson learned here is that we don't need to personally like our President.  We don't elect them to be our friend.  It is akin to teacher, police officers and doctors.  They aren't there to treat us with kid-gloves and tell us stories about rainbows and butterflies.  They are there to do a thankless job that often includes telling us things we don't want to hear.  Even if I had the opportunity to socialize with President Trump, I would not.  His personality does not fit mine.  I will however vote for him again as of right now.  Under his leadership, the past three and a half years have seen jobs returning to the States, our country holding the rest of the world accountable for their share of the world's economic burden when it comes to relief, joint military and humanitarian assistance, record low unemployment across all backgrounds, and standing up for ourselves even when it means ruffling some feathers.

If you want to believe that Covid-19 and the economics of the same are his fault, than that is your prerogative.  Facts however do not support it.

Why wouldn't they design this rig with single round projection style headlights (7in size) to mimic the original style and square fender mounted turn signals to do the same.  It would honestly make this rig look as close to classic Pete as possible.  Something like this...
