what did you do your car this year?

[jlat]

hello; well ladies and gentleman I think because my car hasn't been driven much the last couple of years this summer I spent more on it than I wanted to.
new power master(my choice I hope I don't regret)
new exhaust (I did'nt have to but wanted a change)
basic other stuff (front brakes valve cover gaskets and such)
now the latest I need a rear main seal
I should now be able to put it away for the winter and just get new tires come spring and be able to fine tune. But a local guy has his sons G/N in the body shop and should be out soon and depending how I like it maybe mine might have some body work also.
see ya

I replaced my heater core today. The aftermarket one is aluminum and weighs about half of the factory brass one so I probably picked up a tenth or two!
