New tires and a repaired radiator on our W30

Put a new set of tires (BF Goodrich Radial T/A 225/70R14) and had the radiator repaired this week at a local shop. We made it a little farther around the block and broke in the new tires a bit, thought I'd share...

Water pump started leaking so it looks like it's next on the list!

Very nice! I was worried when the car started aiming for that big a$$ light post.

Well if the water pumps leaking, that's only half the way to pulling the timing cover and checking those gears/chain....

Make sure you get the right pump or you'll have issues with lining up the pulleys. Not all HD water pumps are the same.

Hahaha - was just pulling it off in the grass to back it into the building there. I didn't think about that looking unintentional, hahaha. Appreciate the tips on the WP!
