Bacon cheddar ranch with pita chips? Blasphemy!
Pita chips are best with hummus

AS original thread topic.

Replaced my Braille battery today. 21 pounds. After I realized I had installed the original Braille 20 pounder back in June '09 I feel I could go another 5 years with a new one. Also clay barred, Imperial Hand Glazed the hood then waxed it. Both fenders and now the hood are clean and waxed. Next front fascia then both doors etc. Lost the crest off one of my wheel caps so now I need to get another one or a whole new set...decisions...!

I forgot to take pictures, but this weekend, I replaced the water pump and thermostat. Double flushed the coolant. Changed the oil and filter. And I replaced one tie rod. Don't laugh. I was beat. Plus I had the other side against a wall and decided not to mess around with trying to replace the other from underneath the car. I got the car off the jack stands for the first time in a couple months and drove it (slowly, because I only had 4 lugs installed on each of the front wheels) around the block so I could turn it around to gain access to the other side.

Next weekend, install the tie rod, change spark plugs, and replace the front bumper. I'm waiting to do that, because I think it looks cool without the front bumper. Then let the prettification start. Finally.

I went to the EuroCar show for a few hours. Then I installed my new to me 987 shifter. What a difference, it's like a new car.
