This is on my 97... it's had coolant but I'm pretty sure the previous owner never flushed the coolant. And I haven't since right after I bought it. I've ran a couple bottles of radiator flush threw it the last couple weeks so guess we shall see... about to start pulling it.

Well it sounds like I have the guy lined up to do my appraisel on Ka'Bluey, and he has a partner that he works with that will do the second one that I need. Hope to get this done Monday, then to the insurance company for the Indemnity Bond so I can get a title.

Power is out now, lucky me, it at least waited until the second pot of coffee was brewed and I had a fire going. Guess I'm going to sit back and relax, unless I get restless and decide to go move the branches off the driveway...

That's what I said, bend those others back up and add a new seal and we would be good to go.

I have a little bit of scraping to get done outside this morning. I got out for a bit yesterday, took the wife's Escape, that way I only had to scrape it off. Now to finish her Escape, then get my truck (2011) cleaned off so I can get out to the bank and store tomorrow.
I have an appointment for tomorrow about lunch time for my two appraisels for Ka'Bluey. One guy is coming out to get all of the truck's info, and he said he's taking 50 or so pictures, doing his work, then send them to another guy and he will do his. So it's basically two for one, and he even came down on the price after we babbled a bit. He started at $300 for the two appraisels, then went to $250, and 50 bucks is 50 bucks!
Stay warm if you can.

Bunch of ice here. We were mostly spared. Tons of branches down in our yard but luckily the house didn't take any big hits. The trailer took a good shot but was unfazed. Some of our neighbors lost whole trees.
Yall stay safe and warm if you can.

Power didn't stay off long. I got the branch of the drive way and most of the ones in the back piled up. Just got one big one left in the front yard to deal with. Got the tire fixed on my wagon I use to bring firewood up to the house from the wood pile. That should make life a little easier, also finished plumbing the new air hose in the shop, since the last one decided to blow on me. I felt pretty productive yesterday. 
I think next weekend, i'm going to be burning branches and pinestraw again, I tell ya I'm really starting to dislike pine trees more and more.
Ya'll stay warm.

I don't have any love for pine trees either. I moved here in 87', by 07' i'd had enough. I called the neighbor up the street(tree company owner)and had him to take all 15 of them out. The smallest one was 18" in diameter and the largest was almost 60". Best thing I ever done! It wasn't cheap, but it was worth it to me.
