Native to the U.P.

Eat sheet Metal.

Most active in Spring, but will eat year round.

They must com from near Iron Mountain, MI up in the U.P.

Around here, we have tin worms. They not only eat sheet metal, but they would do a pretty good job on wood too back in the day.

Yah, do they do return to Iron Mountain to spawn, LOL

Can anyone tell me what the cylinder shape is under the interior tub / engine bay molding is for? I used a red laser pointer to show you.

It doesn't stay on there Jon. If I remember right it was just a guide or ejector pin.
