Sanded down the passenger side door I got to replace the rusted piece it currently has on it.

This has turned into more of a project than I was anticipating.

I need to drain and fill my transmission too. I did it last year, but since then I haven't even looked at it.

Last night I reinstalled the egr system the p.o. took off. New vac can, egr solenoid, vac lines, and some elbow grease. I have a few kinks to work out, but I'm hoping I can gain an mpg or two having some of this stuff working again.
