    Managed to put 500+ miles on it this season so far. Turned 58,000 miles! Its been running great. Had to replace the accelerator pump early in the season. Finally replaced the hardtop weatherstripping with new units from Steele Inc. (I've only had them for 3 years) What a difference! Power trunk release is working. Tracked down a NOS rear marker lamp/bezel for the quarter panel. Reinstalled the rear bumper guards too.

    I've got a small list to chip away at. Driver's side mirror is loose, there is a sticker on the rearview mirror, install quarter panel trim, install c-pillar trim, clean & install the A/C compressor & determine why the choke is not working. Also finishing the garage at the same time. 220 subpanel, eleven 4ft LED fixtures, 9 outlets, LED cans in the soffits, fresh drywall and maybe an epoxy coated floor.
