    Griz. (the laundry list and where Im going with it)

    Ok, so yes, my 91 eplorer XLT has a name. all my cars have ^.^ Hers is Grizabella, she earns it. looks like hell but when I first got her she purred like a kitten. Physically she looked abused. now, at 122k she's not so young.(11k of that I put on since june 6th when I got her.) My project list...
