    An awful lot of people will never notice the difference.

    As usual, they will just think it is a Camaro!

    Wired the Taurus fan to the Sniper2. Now we can control the on/offs for both speeds.

    Very nice straight out of the box. I am not comfortable enough with it yet to start jacking with the settings, but I do like controlling the fan temps with it.

    Detailing her in anticipation for Hot August Nights. Last time I entered her was 2016 and she got an award from Summit Racing. Event Schedule – Hot August Nights

    Waxed her the other day. Applied a treatment to the leather seats and detailed the interior. Not much more to do since I rarely drive her. I think tomorrow I will do a little touch up under the hood and she should be all ready.

    Last week the AC stopped working. Thankfully, she just needed a shot of R12 and $280 from my wallet. I need to run the AC once a month in the future. So glad to have it working again. No AC in August sucks.
