I replaced the cap in April or May

I forgot to update, mechanic neighbor tested and says water pump, new pump will be in Tuesday

The good news is the oil isn't milky so that's a good sign at least. I found it strange that the temperature gauge was climbing since it pretty much doesn't move anymore, that's when I popped the hood and saw a ton of coolant pouring out the bottle like the last time it stuck

Seems to be seepage around the housing

As soon as I get my sockets back tonight I'll do that... Yah, lived here about 9 years now

How would I know?

Engine was overheating, while sitting in a long line...anti freeze was pouring out the overflow bottle, like the thermostat was sticking I just replaced the thermostat about a month ago, is the thermostat defective or something else?

Drove neighbor to this guy's property... he's got tons of old cars and trucks around, mainly '50s Chevys, but plenty of others... including this very original '49 Chrysler (the only Mopar)

I haven't had power steering in a few years, not fun in parking lots...I can't wait to get a new steering box....

I meant to also say tilt steering column, with intermediate wipers, but no factory cruise control, a "Sears Autocruise" cruise control was added early on and the wires are spliced in different spots, not something I'm looking forward to going through

The Cherry Bomb's steering column is loose...what year Ms will interchange? The plugs and such

Congratulations

Don't forget cars really don't look any different then they did 10+ years ago

I found the problem, the license plate light wires were touching each other, I'd replaced the taillight wiring on 10/22/2022 because The Cherry Bomb's was shorting out so badly, but all I could find was an '87 Fifth Avenue (probably the one from Moyes) and the license plate lights are different...

Ok

The brake lights work now, when the lights first went out I checked that fuse too, I must've put one of the burnt fuses in, because they were still working when running lights first went out, so one mystery solved, Friday I'm going to check the wires from the fuse box, back and look for anything...

Yes the turn signals work in the rear, all of them. No factory cruise control, but it was added at some point, I'd guess pretty early on since the instructions say Sears and Roebuck

The brake lights are not working, I have had issues in the past with the taillight wiring, I've had to splice a couple of wires to get them all working

I've never touched the brake switch, how would I check that? I've had issues with the taillights, I've had to fix a couple of ground wires, I've thought of that, but then how come the parking lights in the front aren't working either?

I had to go somewhere, and turned the headlights on, the gauges wouldn't light up, the fuse (I think 3a) looked ok but since I have a bunch of extra fuses I put a new one in anyway, didn't make a difference, fuck it I turned the light on my phone on the speedo and drove off, then I had to get...
