Snow today
It is supposed to snow in Utah today so I guess I will quit holding out for that last great day for a drive and start on the winter projects.
Nothing major this year mostly maintenance stuff: New Porterfield brake pads on all fours Repack the front wheel bearings Add Stabil to the fuel tank Tighten all bolts I do have a new radiator shroud that I am going to install as one of my winter to do's!! What is on your list of things to do for the Cobra this winter? |
Hi Terry,
I too will repack the wheel bearings, check all brake pads, install weather stripping on hood and trunk lids and doors. I found a new product from my electrical trade to use as a sleeve for the wiring harness, we'll see how that looks. But, this weekend looks like descent weather, soooo . . . I'M GONNA DRIVE THE CRAP OUT OF IT!!! Sorry. . . Chris |
- Paint road rash away
- replace seat belts - maybe replace brake pedal for more leverage (easier push) - maybe pads, too - change oil and filter (yes, it needs a change) - clean underside - check shifter bolts - clean air filter Did not think the list was that long; better get busy! |
Here is what I plan to do periodically during the winter. :LOL: :LOL:
|
Geez Warren, aren't you going to get tired of looking at the same video after a couple of thousand times this winter?

I just came in from the garage as I have to cool off I’m just sweating whey to much, of course it’s the same in the summer months also.

My son bought me a picture of snow which is hanging on my wall here in Florida and that’s as close as I want to come to any SNOW

Snow??
It's snows in North Alabama every five years, a little bit. We have a wet cold here so you have to turn on the heater, wear gloves, hat, heavy coat, scarf and what ever it takes to go for a ride in the winter. But we can drive all year long.

Dwight, I was expecting your reply to end with, "Neener, Neener!"
Returned from Arizona last night to 2+ inches of the white stuff on the ground at my house and more than 6 inches on the ground at work!! Time to tear into the Cobra and "Git R Dun"!!!! |
I absolutely hate snow. Received a wonderful 7" this Saturday evening, then it started raining Sunday morning and has not stopped. Snow all gone, everything is flooding... crap.
My to-do list: Install sub strap. Shim tranny 3/8". Front end alignment. Fix t-neck leak. Clean engine and check all bolts. Reinforce dash. Recheck all wiring behind dash. etc. etc. etc. |

From the KIRO site. At Sea-Tac Airport, 3.25 inches of rain fell between midnight at 10 a.m., said KIRO 7 Eyewitness News meteorologist Monty Webb. Eight inches of rain fell in Bremerton. The record at Sea-Tac for this date is 1.85 inches. With heavy rain continuing to fall, the all-time 24-hour record of 5.02 inches -- set on Oct. 20, 2003 -- could be broken by day’s end, Webb said. |
Oh, now I remember, that's why.......................
...........I left Seattle after 10 years!:rolleyes:
jdog P.S. I still remember the sign on the highway heading south that said "Will the last one out of Seattle, please turn out the light!":o |
We got about 12" in the last 2 days,I guess it's time to get started on the winter projects, the shop was cozy at 65 and the driveway still has all the snow in it, God put it there He can take it away. Carl

I have been at Boeing since 1980 and it was about 10 years prior to my coming to work here. |
Your really dating me now!
I remember the sign from while I was still in the Army at Ft Lewis from 1969-1972. I went to work at Boeing in 1975 during the re-build-up after the SST debacle. Bought a real nice house in Burien (from the thousands to choose from, that were abandoned during that time).
Left Boeing in the early 80's and headed for warmer weather in Cali. |
