Yesterday's adventure started off innocently until turning into misadventure/chaos. Started off by grabbing a couple of new alternator belts to stop the squealing and have a spare, then went to the tag agency to get my tag up to date, then I went to the car wash and thoroughly douched the engine and body..... That was all well and great until I went to fire it up and leave. Chaos ensued, finally after several attempts to get home I found where I had knocked a vacuum cap off.

Got it home, replaced the vacuum cap, did a bolt check and retightend my carburetor, reset my idle and air fuel.
It cleaned up pretty decent.
Started getting my tools and cleaning supplies etc put up so I could get in the house and finish my house chores and get my stuff ready from work today and disaster really struck.....

Went to shut the sliding door and the pop out window glass exploded all over me..... Must have come loose or something. And of course I didn't have a spare.

So after standing around for a few minutes equal parts perplexed and pissed off, I pulled my head out of my ass and called an old neighbor down in Okmulgee that had some junk vehicles that claimed he had one. So I cannonballed down to Okmulgee Town only to find it was a spilt window style that had a metal divider in the middle of the sliding door. Not wanting to leave my interior exposed and more or less being out of options I went ahead and bought them and installed them and temporarily blocked the gap with weatherproof tape.

Van cruised flawlessly 65-70mph all the way down and back with 0 issues. Went out this morning and fired it right up and drove it to work.
If there's one thing y'all need to know about the DooleyDude: I refuse to lose.

Made a trip to the junkyard today looking for the correct replacement pop-out window for my Van. This one had barn doors so no go.
