First time I have been able to work on my car in about a month. Installed and adjusted my alternator and power steering belts. Installed my negative battery cable. Trimmed my heater hoses to the proper lengths. Cleaned and painted my tilt column.

Also installed the winch in my car trailer today, going after my 69' Chevelle next weekend and the winch will come in handy.

My Ground Up order showed up today. Grabbed a few parts for the 69' while they were on sale. (Stainless gas tank, trim parts door handles, trim parts tail light bezels) Also picked up a small clip for the 72'.

I walked around them in the shop to make sure they were OK and that the roof was not leaking with the snow melting. I did actually clean out the back of my El Camino as I plan on driving it for a little truck gathering saturday.
