As much as I'd love to, that's not happening right now. Got a formula sucker and diaper wetter in the house.



Funny thing is that I mentioned changing the wheels to my FIL last year. He couldn't believe why I'd do that. He likes to tell this story. When he bought the car new in 2005 he wanted some nice chrome wheels. He was looking for the ones on the car but was having trouble locating them, American Racing is the brand. He had to special order them from Florida and they were one of the "last" sets available anywhere in the US. He paid $2500 for them back in 2005 but he would have spent more because they are solid and great looking wheels.

He's also turning 72 this year and I think the look reminds him of his younger days. He also had a huge, fluffy steering wheel cover on the car at all times.
