Yeah and this is the part I really struggle with, I don't get to drive mine for 4 months of the year.

For now......it's 5 years old with only 5,500 miles on it, not sure if it is worth keeping. It's a lot of money sitting there that doesn't go too far very often. Seriously I used it 10 times this year and it's about to be put back in storage.

Saw two drops of oil under the car today. Gary is worried.

I changed the oil a couple of weeks ago, hopefully it was oil that spilled and just now fell off the engine. It was under the passenger side roughly underneath where you fill the oil.

I know what that's like. Check the box though and make sure they're actually headers.

Hope it's nothing bad.

so, have you started installing any parts yet, or are you waiting for everything to come in first?

I was waiting for my cold/allergies to go away and to have a free weekend to commit to it.

I was told today that I have a birthday party to go to for my wife's best friend who live about 30 minutes away. So Saturday afternoon is officially shot to heck.

We take Paige on Thursday to have her allergy tests done. I'm considering having myself done sometime. After 37 years I'm getting tired of living with this. I could handle shots if it meant I wouldn't feel like this anymore.

I'm allergic to cedar. Cedar trees, Juniper plants, Cedar pollen, Cedar sawdust. If I get one speck of cedar sawdust in my nose it starts running like a waterfall. If I touch a live Juniper or Cedar plant I break out in hives. Other than that I'm not sure. But every year the first major cold front blows Mountain Cedar pollen in from the Hill Country north of here and that's it. My October and part of November is blown to hell. It always results in a sinus infection or an upper respiratory infection. Plus I used to have wicked bronchitis all the time when I was younger.


Paige is doing fine. She's 100% back to normal now.

I think you can also use the single large fan that was used in the 4.6L T-Birds.
