And since I was on the safety kick, I finally got around to pulling the right rear drum off to find a leaking wheel cylinder like I figured. Lots of brake dust being held together with brake fluid and stuck to everything! So the car might be ready for a longer distance drive in the near future. And of course, as I get home from the parts store, the 00 SS starts making some noise under the hood. I think it might be the water pump so I need to keep an eye on it for now.

Give me an update a few months down the road. I'm still running the BFG s .
