Fixed my coolant leak. It SO looked like a head gasket but gladly I decided to replace those plastic elbows for the heater! And the one was cracked all to hell an not from me removing it. Flushed the cooling system and added coolant. My Bird is back to good health!

Finally ordered a set of black TTM's (17x9 & 17x10.5) and Nitto 555's (315's out back). Now if I can just contain my excitement until they arrive!

Got my new antenna mast in. So I took apart the winding mechanism of the power antenna housing. Cleaned all the dirty lithium grease out, re-greased it and got it all back together and re-installed...I have a working antenna again! I took lots of pics so I'll try and get a write-up together tomorrow!
