It is not pretty, needs a paint job and got a new transmission 2 years ago but I love it. We are close to 360,000 and...

    Air Conditioner

    I just tried to add and the gauge on the can says it is full. I am afraid to overfill. I know it has a leak, this has been my way of getting around dumping the big $ in it and so far each year it has worked.

    Air Filter Modification and battery light

    I saw a mod using a piece of pvc pipe to connect the filter to existing hose, is there a better way? I assume the pvc way is less expensive.
