Don't you just love that, how easy these babies are to work on? I read a story of a guy who had two old cars in the '70s, a '69 Benz and a '59 Plymouth. The Benz blew a head gasket, went to the shop to be replaced, then blew another head gasket because they had put the head bolts in the wrong order. I mean, come on!

At the same his Plymouth's fan cut the radiator hose, ran all the antifreeze out on the road. Engine seized, he pushed the car to the nearest house, taped up the hose, filled it with a garden hose, and the car started right up. Ran for another 100k miles. When all my friends tell me eurotrash vehicles are better, I just smile.

BTW, my VW Golf did the same thing as the Plymouth, 'cept it cost me $700 to fix.
