If it ain't raining I am... LOL

Yesterday we took both our lowered Magnums for a ride and she dropped off hers at the stereo shop to see why amp and speakers were cutting off and to check status of drivers door speaker. They found a damaged remote wire making the amp to cut in and out. The door speaker was shot and really cheap stock ones. She had both door speakers replaced with 3 way speakers. WOW, sounding good now. She has 15" Kicker Comps in a box that fills up a good part of the back of the car.

Then I stopped to some detail shops to see IF I could get the orignial pin stripes removed... missing in spots and faded in all others. both shops recommend that I just put NEW ones over the top.

After I got home was determined to see why neither fog light worked. I pulled off the plastic splash pan underneath and seen ONE side was cracked and broken; just decided to leave the stupid thing right off.... probably broke 'cuz the car has been lowered and it has been hitting at times.

ONE wire was just hanging down; no bulb and the other bulb was shot. Found some H1042's at O'reillys so I took off and picked 'em up and gottem installed.

Let their be light!!!

Tee took a few pictures.....

Little dissapointed today as it's raining and still a lot of stuff to check out on this car...

However, in between the rain, I did get to go out and finish detailing the seats with leather cleaner.... then I was in the garage and found some yellow wire loom and decided.... why not... added some to the engine. The headlights had a lot of fog area on the top, so I just got some wax and they cleaned up better than they were. I also polished the tail lights. Then I remembered the washer hood nozzles did NOT spray. I sat in the car pushed the button several time and finally saw water coming from underheath the hood mat. I pull the mat back, squeesed my hand in there and found the hose just laying in there. I pulled the mat back enough to push the hose back on and NOW the wiper nozzles spray perfect... AW.... just something to do today....

The head lights before polishing.... Not a great picture; they were foggy

After polishing by hand; I don't have one of those headlight cleaning kits...

Way to go Jim. Just don't forget about the other wagons you own. It is like neglicting your other children. I guess the new born does get all the attention for a while.

Great idea, I already did think about this, but because this ONE is more of our everyday driver, don't wanna sink much money in it. We had LOTS of MODS on our other Magnums. I may, however just paint the stock grilles BLACK!!!
