What did you do to your panther today?

[bluejay_32]

Turned on my woefully inadequate high beams. Now I remember why I was looking into building my own harness for my headlights and fog lights.

Bought another one





01 Base model. 137k

^^^ Decent...

Not fancy or flashy, but a clean, solid looking car. I'd drive it...
It has the same mileage as mine, but less rust and... apparent... wear.

[bluejay_32]

Washed it and ignored the poverty light.

My Grand Marquis ignition key broke this afternoon; the loop where it attaches to the key ring cracked open, and it couldn't attach to the key ring any more.

So, I found the broken piece, and glued it back together with Super Glue, making a closed loop on the key again. But, I didn't trust the glued bit... so I reinforced the repair with a bit of steel wire, embedded in Epoxy over the loop on the key.
Bingo.

Fed the beast.

Put a new speedo cable on the 89 and noticed another hole in the frame,it will most likely be done after this coming winter.

Got new wheels: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=400

[LTC_Dave]

less rust and... apparent... wear

Oh trust me, I do a good job of hiding it.

[LTC_Dave]

Worked on the 01-
Oil change
Trunk lid
3 bulbs
Rear brake pads
6.25 gallons of gas

Yikes!

Talk about a taper...

(And, I assume that there WAS an outside pad there before you took the caliper apart...)

(And, I assume that there WAS an outside pad there before you took the caliper apart...)

Of course. But I wouldn't assume much on a $500 car.

Checked the torque on the wheels.

[bluejay_32]

Balanced the wheels again. Three out of the four were whacked the fck out, and I just balanced them like two weeks ago.

Washed it on the way home.

[bluejay_32]

Rechecked the torque on the wheels.
