Hi William, Do they salt the roads where you are in the winter? I guess they either don't or you don't take your old cars out in icy/snowy weather. I am not sure if Michael wants to do it himself or not. I have no idea what parts prices are like where he is in New Jersey. His Honda is not parts compatible with J-cars, but the brake lines might not be too expensive. The hangers on the other hand, might be dealer items. The bugger would be that everything will be rusted together. That 15 - 20 minutes per wheel would suddenly be all day. Car kids around here get their dads to buy them new Ferraris I'm afraid. The poor kids use skateboards and bum rides from the rich kids. Don't see any home-built/serviced cars, unless the driver is in his 60s. -- Regards, Pete http://pete-theisen.com/ http://elect-pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
