...turn on the heater valve. Me toes are goin' numb.

Durn'd Canadian snow-birds are totin' that northern weather down here with 'em! I think they forgot to close the door when they left home. STOP IT! Stop it this minnit!

Should be an import tax levied on cold brought down to Florida. THEY think it's WARM here. sheesh.
 
Quitcherbit**in', Doc. It was 32 bloody degrees when I left for work this morning! If I could figure out a way to box some of this up and send it your way, I'd be more than happy to oblige! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Thin blood is <span style='font-size: 17pt'><span style="color: #FF0000">NOT</span></span> for cold weather!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grouphug.gif (Just to stay warm!) /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

I'm sleeping in the van for the next two nights.
And it'll be in the mid 30s (F).

If it wernt for this knee, I'd a finished getting the 74 on the road and I'd be drivin it top down no matter what the weather.
 
I'd be sad too James. Dark at 4pm isn't my idea of fun! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif

Well, IN Sarasota now and it's warming up a bit. Not so much I'm happy but at least my toes have some feeling in 'em now. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

Overheated V12 Jag seems not to have suffered too badly. Checked all the holes, no cross-pollination of water/oil, no Vesuvius like columns of coolant from the plugholes... life's good. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif

Oil change, new hoses, mebbe a leak-down test. We'll see.

"Cover me fellas, I'm goin' in!"
 
mid 40's today which in unbeliveable for ND in november. If my B had floors in it I would be blasting around the country side today.

Pansy!!! HEY! I had to put shoes,socks long pants and a long-sleeved shirt on today!!!! NOT Fl. attire!!!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif
 
I`m happy, its ONLY dropping into the mid 30`s here at night.
Today it warmed up to the mid 50`s YESSSSSSSSSSSSS !
Unseasonably warm for us!
Next week the forcast is for some NASTY cold air to move our way. It won`t be long till we are shivering.
Spent the morning putting the SNOW BLADE back on my A.T.V.
Makes short work out of the driveway and sidewalk pluss beats the crap out of using the shovel.
{Scarcasm} I can hardly wait for the "Bic lighter days" to come, {Thats holding the flame on the car door lock so you can unthaw it to insert the key to unlock the door}.
And NO Doc. I don`t feel the least bit sorry for you /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif
Fix your Dam* heater!

Do me a favor. When you go thru the carousel squeal the tires extra loud for me.
 
This ice cold CAB in me mitt just lost some appeal... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif


As for the heater, Donn, the thing hasn't blown aught but FUSES since '98. To get at it means pullin' all the center console and under-dash stuff out. I've done my share as well, I just don't PAY myself well enuff to be bothered to DO it! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif

As compensation I made the trip home at 3:30 PM with the top down in sunny 75*F temps, sustained 80 MPH for an hour. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif

And I got to "explain" to a 4x4 Ford pick-em-up with HUGE mudder tires how rapidly a V12 XKE can accelerate to 65 MPH from a stoplight... my bad. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
