Thanks everyone. I am enjoying the car. I will also make sure to upload a smaller pic next time. My headlights don't seem to be coming on every time I need them to. I think a headlight switch replacement will be my first DIY - seems easy enough. From what I have read online, disconnect negative battery terminal first, make sure gas tank in more than half way full and turn the key one click before I touch the battery. Everything else seems straightforward.

Looks normal .. But maybe there is a lesson here. When doing a coolant job like water pump why not replace the hoses at the same time.

That's a real beauty, and at an excellent price. Agree with others, previous maintenance seems to have been excellent. Congratulations and welcome to Rennlist!

Excellent! I've got a few items from my old '99 if you want them? Hit me up on FB or e-mail.
