We used to have a mid 1980's caprice station wagon, got like 12 mpg, could seat a least 9, 11 if you tried and was like a tank on the road. It rusted completely though. Everything had a leak on that car. We also had a 1988 V8 caprice sedan. Im pretty sure that car got 8-10 mpg

Morning all

Morning all!

Dead tired... didn't get home until late last night after the baseball game (we lost

). Another late night tonight as I'm going to the game tonight too.

Sports > sleep.

Happy Tuesday!

I'm supposed to dabble with this Bondo glazing/refinishing/spot putty stuff this evening. The instructions say to sand the fiberglass a bit. Only problem I can see is that the fiberglass on this lip is really really thin. I think sanding would get rid of it completely. Any tips?

Pint just sand lightly. You are just trying to get a rough edge to adhere to. Morning all. Just checking in. Paying bills online. Good news on the job front- the administration is finely starting to negotiate. ZDayZ is looking like more do able.

I wanted to put the putty on the back and front for more a filled type job. I'll do the front side first and see how it holds up.
