At the cost of a $700ish cat, I'd say the car took at least one point.

Kroil works some magic with seized up fasteners.

Well I never really thought I could sell them for anywhere that much, the best I was planning on doing is either keeping them or scrapping them for some ca$h at a metal recycle yard. ($80 for the set) which I just plan on doing that since one is toast. All they want is the precious metals in the cat anyway...)
