GoodBye Posted September 16, 2006 Author Posted September 16, 2006 Why? If it still runs good and doesn't burn oil, why not keep it going. I have a 96 GrandPrix w/76K on it. Still runs good. No need to rush out and have a car payment. 774606[/snapback] THANK you. Bout time you sided with me.

Why not run it till it dies.
Taro T Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 She's only a partial loser then. Duh. 774651[/snapback] Unlike the rest of us.
inkman Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 Exactly...I love my car. Why not run it till it dies. 774771[/snapback] When you need to get 1k worth of repairs(water pump crack and belt replacement), it's time to put it up for sale and take the 4k cash you got for your car right to the car dealer and slap it down on the table as your down payment on your 2003 Honda Acorrd EXL. Just saying...
EC-Bills Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 I'd venture a guess and say i've seen more real women topless in the last month than you have since you got married 774742[/snapback] Shh. Don't say that. The whole point of my comment was to coax Lana into providing pics. P.S. Going to nudie bars doesn't count
EC-Bills Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 THANK you. Bout time you sided with me. 774764[/snapback] My dear, I am *always* on your side
stuckincincy Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 Cincy- Is there anything (such as a touch-up paint or something) that can take a scratch outta my Wrangler from a stone that was kicked up and hit me? The scratch (gash?) is thru the clear coat and about the size of a pen-tip. Thanks. 774449[/snapback] Other than re-painting the whole panel, not much to be done, except using the little touch-up paint bottles. Places like Auto Zone, and of course, a dealership sells them. Make sure you get the correct color code. Wash and dry the area. Then wipe a couple of times with a little bit of cigarette lighter fluid. Do not use charcoal lighter- it won't hurt the paint, but as it's a crude distillate, it leaves a residue that works against adhesion. Try out the paint in a hidden surface, like under the hood. These touch-up paints have a tendency not to lie flat, and it's easy to apply too much. Fiddle around 'till you're comfortable with the results. The repair will eventually flake off, so then re-coat.
