Default Well, the new year has started off right. I was at advance auto getting some oil and a chamois...

I walked out and an older couple (maybe in their 70s was walking around my car). The older gentleman said, "We love your car, what year is it?". I said "Thanks, it's a 95". He says, "Wow, it looks mint!".

That was a nice little ego booster to start off the new year!

R&amp;R'd alternator. Fixed leaking dip-stick at oil pan. R&amp;R'd lower control arms to clean &amp; relube PowerFlex bushings.

Cleaned, adjusted, tinkered...

HAPPY NEW YEAR! ;o)

Default Yea, I spent a good 5 hours outside today cleaning, tinkering, etc ...

It was 68 degrees here! The alternator pulley looks good, I'll be replacing another cat before I get one though (

Default I left the window rolled down in my car and also left it unlocked.

That's how I started the new year.
