Re: 73-87 before and after pics
The Dammit before and after. This got brought up today at the chiropractors office. I'm finally getting my left shoulder fixed 3 years later. The seat belt messed my shoulder up, but seeing as that's the only thing on me damaged, I absolutely will not complain!

Bought it like this



After: Wasn't hard at all.
