I hear that. Loads of fun the last two days replacing that $100 thermostat on the Jeep diesel - parked in between the two '87's - in insulated coveralls AND a coat, and still freezing my buns off - almost wish I'd waited until I was back in SA to do it - but I was losing up to 5 mpg with that bad 'stat.

Got all the legal paperwork in hand for both cars. Now, I'm inventorying what I've got for new and used parts, and looking for any useful paperwork on both - such as the copy of the service paperwork on the red one when I had a "major" service done on it at the MB dealership in Hickory (they gave me a brand new Dodge Charger to drive for the two days it was there - SWEET!!) back in '06 after I bought it.
