Had a tire blow out (tore the bead) on a rain-slicked corner, did a 180 and nearly rolled it (but luckily it stayed upright). Then put the doughnut on and went to get a new tire, and underware change lol.

Almost finished making my nut strips, just need to get the nuts and bolts. I would have finished them today but no one near me carries the size bolts I want. It shouldn't be hard to find M12x1.75 10.9 bolts and matching nuts, but the local Hardware store didn't have anything over an M8 and Canadian Tire stopped at M10, both only stock grade 8.8. Going to make a trip into Ottawa tomorrow morning and head to Ottawa Fastener Supply. I have been able to find every odd sized bolt I have ever needed there. They even had the metric studs and nuts I needed for my Dodge Stealth exhaust manifold.

Installed a tranny cooler I got from the junkyard for 10 bucks out of an old Exploder. Bypassed the radiator, and did a full trans flush.
While I was at it, I relocated the horns so they don't hang down all stupid like before.
AW4 fluid looked like straight used motor oil.

Or "ignite it".. Those kerosene forced air heaters will blow dust and debris into fresh paint. Infra-red propane heaters are great for garages.
