Hmm. Nope, just need to move some crap out of the garage, like the old set of wheels from the R129. No Craigslist takers, so I’ll probably sell them for scrap this week. Probably get $75-$80 out of them. Or I might clean the goop off of them and toss them in the storage locker. Not sure.

My old 300D was drip free most of it's life. The new one dribbles all over, need to get a new front seal in it soon and find out where the tranny juice comes from. The 60x engines can be very low oil usage -- in it's prime (before the head went really bad), I used to add no oil at all
