Sorry, never saw you at the cruise! I was hiding in the shade under the bank's drive-through. We did see the wagon and were even discussing your car with a few friends. When you called I was headed to get a cold beer at the Mexican place!

Got asked to bring my car to Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society. One of the guys there decided to have a car show to raise money. They put a purple bucket in front of the car and the one with the most donations was the people choice winner. All the money went to the great cause. My friends purple Dodge Demon won. No trophies just bragging rights and a great way to raise awarness for cancer. I lost my mom to cancer when I was 9 years old, so it's something close to my heart.
This Cobra was one of the best ones I have seen in a long time. It was absolutely gorgeous.

I just had gotten a glimpse of you driving around when I called...thought you had just arrived.
We just walked back from having dinner at Vincent's. We generally pull in, park, get dinner, and then come back and walk around when it's a little cooler. I guess it was around 5pm when we arrived.
Sorry we missed 'ya!!

That radiator works very well!!

I thought about bringing the truck down but last time it ran hot in heavy traffic and it still likes to get hot at idle and slow traffic even with the new radiator and clutch fan .Im going to try some different ideas today.

John,
There's no way that truck should be running hot!!!
We need to look at it...

Where is the base timing set? Did you drill holes in the thermostat? Just thinking out loud...
