    Finished replacing the seat covers, glad that job is done...very time consuming.

    (Excuse the car-clutter....my little one has claimed the parcel shelf as "her spot.")

    Hey Dave, have you ever tried alodining any of the aluminum pieces on the car? I've always been interested in doing such myself, but as I've decided to go concours, it's not really something I can do any more....

Was it meant to be routed somewhere a little more secured? It's not like that's an area that sees a lot of action or movement, but I was surprised to see how close the edge of the hose is to the back edge of the cooling fan motor on the drivers side. It wouldn't go anywhere so long as both ends are connected, but could be pretty exciting if one end did let go.
    Air conditioner line?

    I'll see if I can get a picture of it and post here. It sure looks like it goes to the top LH side of the radiator which on the parts diagram says it's a coolant hose (I had assumed). 26 years of mystery history prior to owning my car and I'm not quite to the end of the surprise finding phase...

    Got a new throttle cable installed for piece-of-mind. Then washed the car and put it away in the garage under its cover.
