Where did the time go?

The last post was from November 30th, 2010. It's March 19th, 2012. Time flies....or does it?

Quite a bit has been done to the car in this time:

- I took 3 more trips to Los Angeles and back in the Mustang in 2011 for a grand total of 2100+ trouble-free miles.

- In July 2011 after 2 trips to Los Angeles and back in 100+ degree heat (and a temperature gauge that read 230+ almost the whole way one trip but infrared thermometer readings around 200F) I replaced the wiring to the temperature sending unit + a heat shield

- I followed this up with a brand new aluminum radiator from Summit Racing + a new high volume water pump

- I embarked on a rewiring campaign in August that lasted about 5 times longer than it should have.

- I swapped in a fan clutch + fan for the flex-fan I've had on the end of the water pump for many years.

- I'm currently in the process of installing Classic Auto Air's "Perfect Fit" air conditioning system. Good (cool) times to be had by all

- Depending on the temperature readings with above said A/C kit I might opt for an electric fan. 20% off until March 31st at one of the parts houses so I just might do this sooner rather than later.
