So anyways my car slide into a snowbank........i got it out, after gunning it back and forth and digging my ass out of there.......
Although the area in front of my radiator and my grill was full of snow packed in.....

Basically once i got out after 4 mins of driving i noticed the Temp gauge was at its max.......i was at a stop light.....steam pouring out....stopped the car, tried to start it again and it just wouldnt start up again........and for some reason (when the cop went to help me) the cap for the coolant was gone or anti freeze?.......

So then i got a tow truck to bring me to Town Motors, Englewood
THey just took out all that snow, and i got out just in time for school

and the cap for the coolant? my dads friends with all the people there so they hooked us up.

Phew, everythings fine.........took her out for a drive on the highway and nothing is wrong....

Im back in the game

Snow will do funny things to an auto when crammed into small spaces.
I backed too far into a parking spot yesterdat and unknowingly packed the tailpipes with snow. Not a happy car, I caught it quick as I always inspect my ride like a fighter pilot before takeoff......
