Finally cleaned under the hood
Got off work at 2 am and was wide awake, so I decided to do some cleaning under the hood before I put the new radiator in tomorrow. I put it off for too long now so while I already had the hood off I made myself go out and get it done. I was amazed it took less than 2 hours. I still have yet to clean up the engine and paint it how I want and I got new chrome valve covers comin soon but I'm pleased with how it turned out.

Sleep? I'm still kickin! Went for a cruise threw town to make sure everything was good to go and since the car shows tomorrow there are a lot of hot cars runnin threw town. Sure enough a guy in a red 66 chevelle SS wagon followed me threw town, lost him at taco bell, then on the way back a newer TA had to shadow me home. Gettin my 17th wind! I'm ready to go for another round.
