Changed the water pump on the 86 today got it all done and started to put water in it and found out there was a nice crack where the heater hose tube threads into the pump itself so took it all back apart and did it again with another brand new pump. Had to keep some hot work lights on it all day so the sealant would cure. While it was curin me and dad tackled the broncos heater core. Took a couple hours cause of the ac box and figurin what all needed to come off. Gonna do heater hoses and some other stuff on it tomorrow after I get the truck all back together.
 
Drove it yesterday and today. New paint on the hood our possibly all the way around is in the works. Stay tuned.
 
I bought a TomTom GPS unit.



even though I already know how to get to anywhere....





just by using my nose and intuition

Got it all done about 8 or so and took it for a drive runs 100% better now that its got good plugs and all the emmisions is plugged off. Still needs a carb rebuild though but that can wait.

You must be slow then :D

Just compulsive. smilietease

I've washed the dent 3 times before being pleased with the results. Of course I wash at home.

Salt on the roads, I'm assuming...

Pickle mix as we call it...plus lots of gravel. I'd like to wash the 750 once a week, but nowhere to put it once it's wet.

I see. You need an under carriage wash at the entrance to your garage for the Lincoln. :D

Actually, the OL uses the touch free auto one lots and it has a great undercarriage wash. I would like a washbay with a lift ideally...one day.
