    Do I Really Have a HCS?

    Welcome Karen, Don't ever be afraid to ask questions. Is it possible that the door data plate got painted over? It should be right below the door latch. Look for a couple of bumps where the rivets would be. It could be under that pretty red paint. Bret

    GT wheels

    I'm posting this for a friend of mine. He has 4 14x6 Argent GT wheels with rings and GT caps. He says they are driver quality.

    Leaking Battery

    I just replaced my 1 yr. old battery because it was leaking all over the apron and frame. Now the new battery has decided to spew all over the apron and frame again. SO, do any of you electrical wizards (Steve) have any ideas. I'm tired of cleaning off acid and paint. Thanks Bret

    Appraisals

    I have full coverage on mine through American Modern Home Ins. It cost me $100 a yr. That will probably go up as I plan to change the value. I was thinking the other day that I should've put the value as replacement value instead of what I thought my car was worth. As values go up I couldn't...

    manual to power steering swap

    I know that if you already have power steering, you can buy an adapter to make it manual, but to change to power can you just add the cylinder, control valve, pump, steering box, etc. to the existing tie rods, drag link or is a complete swap in order. Is it more trouble than it's worth? Bret
