1000 miles / 7 Feathers
« on: September 16, 2012, 01:28:51 AM »
My informal goal for this summer was to put 1000 miles on the Scrap Rod. DONE!!!
Today I took it on about a 100 mile round trip to 7 Feathers Casino. Here's a couple of pics of it out in the "south 40" of the parking lot:

I tried driving my 47 and it's having idle issues and the new radiator already leaks....so, looks like no big cruising for me till next spring.

Vacuum leak? Rad still has warranty ? And you put that on not that long ago?
