Found a pinhole leak in my radiator yesterday. It seemed to have resolved itself using the 3-step premium coolant flush/sealant though.

Bought a new driver's wiper blade to replace my aftermarket one that seemed to make contact with the hood.

Still need to drop my gas-tank out to replace the gas tank seal. Plan to do that over the winter.

These cars are never done!

But they are so fun.
