Title says it all, it's friggin cold outside so preferably something I can take inside with me. I pulled the gauges yesterday, detailed them and put them back in, took about an hour. I'm looking for a similar project, something that won't have me running to an auto parts store, which is 30 miles away, one way.

Suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks fellas,

Mustang Sally

My sunday funday project was to replace all the hoses in my car..In a foot of snow. Last week I blew an Upper radiator hose, and yesterday I blew the "heater hose assembly thingy". It's the metal pipe right ontop passenger side valve cover that connects into the heater core. A friggin' metal pipe with a crimped on hose... made of unobtainium....bracket bolted to the exhaust studs.. what a pain in the ass. Autozone didn't have it, couldn't find the part number on fords website. So I had to ghetto-engineer an alternative. Works great. Then did the Upper, Lower....friggin' piece of Dayco shit needed trimming, There's only one tiny hose that i didn't replace... and with my luck that thing will blow next week and turn my car into a rolling pile of steaming shit.
