That great news man!!

[91grandmarquis]

yeah.. I am pumped to not be sweating sack for the rest of summer, and the temp settings work now so I can set the heat to a temperature below 85*.

[91grandmarquis]

Alrighty... odometer gears are fixed.... she blows cold air... and dash is back together with only 2 extra screws left over!

[1990LTD]

2 is a good number. yay for working a/c!

Well I got two people who gave me compliments within 3 hrs of the car being back on the road... that always makes you feel good when you know it's something you had a huge part in making it that way. The car wasn't even washed yet. So I vacuumed and washed her, also did the deed I had been putting off a while, cleaning the door jambs. I didn't do it while the car was run in the winter because I wanted the grease to stay there, now that it is going up, I figured I would make it look presentable. Not bad for 20yr old sill plates if I do say so myself.









Thats all original paint in there too, I just had the outside re done after body work... so the jambs and under hood is all from the factory still.

[91grandmarquis]

Well figured I would pop in and give you guys a little update about where I have been/what I am up to....

As far as the car goes there is nothing new, I did realize being on the FD now I must run her this winter the rear quarters will definately rust this winter, no matter how much oil I spray them with, but I did the body work once, I can do it again next summer.

I got scheduled to start my firefighter 1 cert and the class starts the 9th... basically it will give me authorization to go into burning buildings.

Started college!! Classes are cool, I like the work.... majoring in chem... more specifically a B.S in chem.

Still working about 25hrs a week, kinda rough but it is what it is.

Also met a girl and things are going really well with that, so needless to say I have about zero free time.....

Also I have to finish up some work on the Ariens tractor we have (front end assembly).

Looking to take my EMT class on top of college starting in January, hopefully I can get a job on the Ambulance crew and stop busting my ass for minimum wage.

Not to screw anything up, but for once things seem to be falling into place for me.



I also took a couple day trips to some local places, mainly lake winnepesaukee in Laconia NH. Big ass lake with some nice boats, and nice beach. Anyway, thats whats up with me, hope you all are doing well too. I will pop in and out when I get a chance, and for sure when work is done on the car. Oh and don't worry I have not lost interest in her.
