Afternoon all. Had to work this morning. Getting ready to go out and start pruning back the apple trees (21 of them). Did the grapes Monday. YUP! IT'S ALMOST SPRING!

 

RV show? now that sounds like fun The Mustangs a nice car but its just now me. It doesn't stand out around here.

Chevy Dealer called, It's the catalytic converter. so who ever guessed thats what it was gets an official Marvel No-Prize from bank in the day. There goes 1300 bucks.

 

Hey everybody!

Haven't been on in while, been busy with a lot of things. For once I don't have any plans for Saturday. May spend some time exercising inside today considering it's around freezing outside.

Just got replacement audio/cruise steering wheel buttons for my Monte in the mail from an online seller. Great condition for just over $40. Waiting until the end of spring to install them in preperation for summer shows and especially the Monte Nationals.

Just a few days ago I ran into the problem of one of my body extention clips awkwardly coming off. It is the one closest to the exhaust outlet on the driver's side. I can see it looking down; it's half on and half off. I carefully attempted to push/pry it from the underside back into the right spot, but no luck. Very frustrating and now the extention has a gap between it and the body about an inch out and 4 inches across, but since I do not have the proper tools at the moment and it's below freezing, I know better than to fight it and probably break it causing a bigger problem. I plan on having minor body work performed on the lips of the wheel wells (where there's a little paint bubbling) before summer anyway, so I can wait just a little to have the fix done more properly then.


Have a good weekend everyone!

Afternoon Everyone

 

So, instead I gone to moms house. Jacked up the monte & scrubbed the underbody, also took the front tires off & cleaned the inside of the rim. Since I had time I also did a good detail on my moms ford escape. The results from both are satisfying enough. The car looks great now that the rims are clean(rears are ok.) and I don't have to go crazy whenever I see moms truck.

The thing hasn't been washed in over a year!! Omg it drives me nuts.
I posted a topic in the detailing section of the results

 

Went skiing today and washed the stang - also loaded my "street tune" to the PCM. I will run that tune during the winter because I was able to change the tire size (I am running a smaller rim/tire for my snow rims - tires & rims were cheaper). Wow what a difference! I can't wait till I get the stock rims back on so I can try out the "performance tune". There is also a race tune for the track. I was also able to choose my octane for each tune. 87, 89 & 93 respectively.

 

evening all, been a long day and i still have to go to work
