Got up early waiting for the temp to rise and when it hit 45 degrees, I had waited long enuff, Pulled up CHANCE nose to nose with BLUE. Tee told me I could take off all the engine MODs I just put on CHANCE a couple of weeks ago; so I pulled the K&N CAI, ABS cover, chrome oil cap and engine plastic wire looms, putting her car back to stock, HOWEVER, it still looks great as I had detailed it all up. To be fair to her, I told her she could have the brand new Silver Star low beam bulbs that I had bought and put 'em in for her. I was surprised how much brighter than stock these were.

Yesterday I had replaced the fog light bulbs on BLUE and noticed the RT underbelly splash pans that the holes did not line up to hook these two together, so Tee helped me hold 'em in place, drilled holes and added "tree type plugs" to tie 'em together; Worked GREAT!

Then Chris, the windshield guy came to install the new windshield on BLUE. That sure looked SCARY to ME!!!

I'm the ole Geezer with the hat on trying to help.....

I knew I couldn't get into anything time comsuming today as I had scheduled a Pulmanary Function Test for my Breathing At our local VA hospital today.

But I did decide to go out and remove the stereo amps and speakers from two of the cars we don't drive right now and maybe gettem' installed in our two latest Magnums CHANCE & BLUE.

First I went to my 94 Caddy and took out my Lanzar 800 watt amp and two 12" Kicker Comp Subs in the box and just sit 'em into the garage.
Then I went to our custom Neon and took out our Boss 200 watt amp and tow Sony Xplods 10's both in separate boxes and sit them into the garage too.

Now IF I was worth a "salt", I'd gettem' hooked up into our two cars. Not good at stereo installs but just would like to get a LIL "BUMP IN DA TRUNK"!

Weird test today at the VA, You start off breathing normal and take a huge deep breath then blow OUT as long as you can. They did this test twice, then spray chemicals into your lungs and retest YOU twice and compair readings. They told my the medicine helps my breathing by 34% ~ WOW!

Now I have to use inhalers when I get outta breath. He!! to get old.
BUT, I'm having a blast with the cars an as soon as the weather breaks I'll be back at it. Terrible thunderstorms today and due all day tomorrow! Sigh...

Ohh yeah, the PFT! I had to do that every year up in NY at the VA when I was working as a firefighter. I always hated that one!

The cars are lookin great! I can't wait to try out that engine detailer!

This engine detailer is different than any other kind I've tried; it doubles as a cleaner first, then rinse, let dry then spray on, just let sit, then start the car and let it get warm enuff and it runs down in all the cracks and creveces. Then just wipe only those few spots where you may have sprayed a bit too much and it puddled. Works Amazing!

I hate that it's raining..... I get impatient and want to do MORE!
