Replaced the brake fluid with Super Blue, rotated the tires and changed fuel filter with a Wix 33311.
My baby just went over 50K.

Bought a new 'Racing Jack' (all aluminum) floorjack in preparation to install my new Poly Motor mounts. This week, I'm also reinstalling my LTCC ignition. I'm waiting for my new FelPro 1010 head gaskets to arrive from Jegs so I can install my Canfield Heads (2.055/1.60 Intake/Exhaust valves).

What major Criminal enterprise were you involved with at the time? No front plates? Tint a tad too dark? Light out over the rear license plate?
Sadly, I've been pulled over for these 3 things in the past 4 years. I guess it beats searching for Pedophiles, murderers, etc. Lol....
