Just took off the wheels, inspected and cleaned the brakes, rotated the tires, and did some wire-brushing and painting on the chassis and under carriage.... not much!

Changed Trans filter, replaced Trans cooling lines to find out 3rd gear is gone.

but that 8hr wait to go home is a bitch.

I always feel I could do less.

Well, I walked out with a beer in hand.....sipped the beer, looked the van, thought about what I wanted to do to it, sipped said beer, opened the side door, looked inside, closed door, sipped beer, went back inside.

That's what I do most of the time, I even do that without the beer. But it's not as much fun......

Parked her for good. After driving her everyday for 15 1/2 years, through life changes, jobs, truck-ins, good weather and bad, Betsy can no longer go down the road safely. My steering wheel was up and down instead of the correct way so I mentioned this to Rick. As the steering wheel was being moved, I'm staring past the drivers wheel and noticed (and HEARD) the steering box literally jumping up and down and back and forth. I thought for sure the front end was going to collapse. Six men have looked at her and told me there is no hope, she is too rusted out. I am so sad I can't stand it. She still looks good and purrs like a kitten. It's going to take a huge bottle of Jack on a bad weekend for me to tear her apart and ship her away. I'm seriously thinking of taking out my etched windows and turning her into a flower bed. I just can't think of her leaving my driveway.
On a happier note, Rick finally got his 8-door back out of the shop it had been in over 2 years. He's a happy man, I'm a sad girl frown
