Don't forget to dry down your door weatherstripping and
spray lock de-icer in the locks tonight. With all the rain and now temps dropping there will be some frozen doors and locks tomorrow! I'm so glad I worked on the car earlier today while it was 54 degrees and I could keep the garage door open. Got all the locks and clips on the headers and re-aligned the y-pipe.

It's snowing like crazy here in Ewing. It's sticking to everything already. I knew we would get snow once I had the car back up and running!

I have a serious electircal gremlin that I cant 100% figure out, and it causes a motor in my door to spin and just drain the battery over night. I heard it last night but I couldn't get into my car to stop it.

the cars being covered by the carport really helps out, usually. with the wind that accompanied that snow yesterday/today, it put a drift up against the '69. no worries about locks being froze, tho.
