    i am figuring the water spray from the wet roads will wash all that away
    but it will look nice for awhile catching a peek while filling up with gas
    i don't intend on making this a routine habit as i rarely lower the tire

    This is the third NEW champion radiator. I went ahead and through the 170° F thermostat back in from my S/C days, it warmed up to 181° F after about 30 minutes. I will give it another drive tomorrow and see how it does. Honestly, if it wasn't for their lifetime guaranty I would dump them all together. But I keep a stock radiator handy.

    In past experiences I've found that less weight is better, and little things add up.


    That's why I'm on a diet. :laughing:

    You've past the point of no return! Congratulations! Now get to looking for other cracks.

    The rear of your bed was cracking too I think.

    I don't care about pin stripes, but the plan is to paint it at some point due to oxidation. But the day it's dry is the day I add new character to it.

    Put in the new CV tonight, went really smoothly. Didn't even have to hammer it in, just took a little muscle by hand and popped right in place. Usually I have to fight the damn thing

    20190911_190840_2.jpg

    Gonna re-boot the OEM one and then swap it back in, since the new CV is just a cheap Pep Boys one
