Wrestled the old coolant tank out this evening. I don't recall having that level of frustration in accessing the clamps engine-side when I did one on a friend's '01 a few years ago. In that instance, I was able to get to the clamps with a remote plier set from underneath while on mine I couldn't snake my arms up that far.
I freed the hoses all topside, and have the new OE tank ready to go in tomorrow.

I paid to have mine replaced in 2022, money well spent IMHO

I got it smogged and licensed in California. Got'er done at AAA, but they had a very limited and odd selection of license plates. I guess I own a junk 959 now!

I did a leather treatment, some general clean-up and put more air in the spare. The visor mirror tabs came off when I flipped them up. I've got spares somewhere, but will probably go without them for a while. I found just enough little bumps that I plan to have a PDR guy look at it in the next few months.

Sunday I was letting people take turns driving it on a circle track. Lots of fun. Then I was riding along with someone who lost control, went through the tire wall and rolled it over. Nobody was hurt. The car has more character now. It was actually pretty awesome, but lets not do it again. Monday I pulled out a few dents, put mirrors back on, and adjusted the windows enough to get them working.
