    sent it for an alignment $20 later goes down the road straight and i need 4 wheel baring LOL

    also got the vents figured out. it's the control switch the first part i swapped out when i got the car. looks like the junk yard one was bad as well time to pony up for a new one

    and it was confirmed the factory useless amp was the reason for the battery drain

    the car was not content with it's shiny new blower motor and has insisted on getting a new radiator



    i will use this as an opportunity to also switch out the leaking trans lines





    the car becomes closer and closer to a GTP as it is now getting the larger GTP rad lol

    what's that black stuff under the radiator that looks like one piece of steel?

    oh, hey, I used your tag line at work the other day in a discussion with some Priiii types. I feel my career closing down, so I am going out with a bang(shift).

    I downshifted just for you... They looked appalled. "Was that you?" uh huh. Did you hear it over your Carpenter's song on the radio? hehe.

    In the movie " Gone with the Wind" they talk about RED clay of Georgia, not black dirt
