getting a new bowl gasket tomorrow, and...she's a runner! guess the kid will have to go back to school after all.
some of those things seem very minor, but trust me, the tiny things gave us the worst grief....that .87 accelerator pedal bolt ended up costing HOURS of rewiring and labor (wire fire last week) and around $80, conservatively, for new alternator and starter relay as well as wire, connectors, etc.
there's no way this list can possibly convey what we have been through with this car (or emma, or marylin. just sayin.'). THANK YOU, NEIL!!!!!
