Spring Projects
Now that the weather if finally changing, or at least trying to, it's time to get ready for some upgrades. Time to pull the radiator and get it cleaned or replaced. While it's out hard to reach things up front will get replaced. The smog pumps and associated plumbing as well as dash air will be removed.
I just ordered replacement clearance lights for the front so they will get replaced when I reseal the roof.
I also picked up a new 22" LCD TV so it will go in once I come up with a mounting bracket.
Any ideas for things to look for while the radiator is out will be greatly appreciated.

RichieCHi Tom. Is the rad leaking or are the fins turning green? From my understanding droping the rad isn't a small job. If I wasn't sold on "Irontite", I'd have re-cored mine years ago.

I am still interested in that bumper. If we can't find a way to get it here I might just have to take a road trip and get it.

Not really a leak issue, there's no flow. Having it out of the way will give me easy access to everything up front that should probably be replaced.
Right now I'm just hoping to get some time away from work so I can get started on it.
