    R and R'd the brake master cylinder, reverse lamp switch, hood to fender rubber grommets (all of them including the two post screws and the rubber pucks up on the firewall). Removed the hood to do the brake master cylinder, made the job easier and since I was going to adjust the hood anyway I figured it made since. More planned for tomorrow. :smash:

    Put about 150 miles on my orange car today by going to the MCCI Indiana Mini-Meet and then a trip into the big city tonight. It took $35 worth of 93 octane at $4.02 a gallon to do it. I am scard to do the math!!
