Re: ok more car stuff

my first car was a '68 VW squareback. After owning it for a year it threw a rod bearing

I was really upset at the time, but looking back now its one of the best things that ever happened to me. I had no choice but to rebuild the engine myself with nothing but the 'How to keep your VW alive' book.

ever since then I have no fear of working on my own cars. I have 4 cars in my name, my Vue, my wifes saturn L200, my sons SL and my daughters '94 SL2. There is no way I could pay someone else to do all the repair work on all 4 cars, not even the normal oil changes and simple maintance.

Over the years it really adds up, and I have a really nice set of Craftsman tools. :^)
