I really want to end up with a car I can depend on, that just happens to be 30 years old.
Not a 30 year old car that I drive that I *HAVE* to depend on.... b |

Britt, I think you should try to fix it. You will learn a lot by doing so. Sounds like Grasshopper is ready and able to help. I can maybe get a rotisserie to loan to you. I used it on my car and then sold it to a local guy. Sounds like fun.

well Doug Leggins has a rotisserie that he said we could all use...
Maybe i'll ask him. Supposedly it has a hitch attachment (maybe i'm making it up) maybe there's a way to do it without taking everything off and putting it on a rotisserie? b |

hey britt, if this guy is offering a rotisserie too, just try to fix it...you cant loose much if it doesn't work out...just the cost of metal...and time... maybe you could have a post bluegrass classic party, and get together the locals for a day and get her fixed up?? just throwing ideas out...

Might be able to do the work on jack stands. I know its a lot of work to put the car on a rotisserie. But its like night and day when it comes to welding.
Im not the best welder but maybe Grasshopper like welding upside down. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) David |

What's more interesting to you: fixing cars, or driving cars?
There's your answer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

you're young, use this as an opertunity to learn. That's why I bought my teener, to learn. When you're old, and you're free time in limited by a job, wife, kids, and a mortgage. Then American Express it
