Needed a notary?

Air, and maybe toss a tomcat in there to cure it. Tomcat piss will
overpower anything. (Serioously, talk to a restoration place or body shop.
Not sure what they used in my Ford's vents, but it killed it.) Hey, wasn't
it Sandor who had the mouse palace? What'd he do?

Just because it's a girl doesn't mean it's not powerful. ASk my headache,
she rules the roost.

After falling in love at first sight? You know she's gonna nail you, now
that she's on your good side. The female ones are evil like that.

This thing an AC car? GL, LOL. And Canadian purified water no less (from
the dehumidifier). As good as anything the Holy land has to offer for
casting out automotive demons. Always thinking of ya honey ;)

Yes, but it is a Scirocco. And that's sure worth something.

Why, my cars are good cars. After that, I may not want mine talking to
yours...;p

So, referring to "the book", here are the main sections. How many did you
cover this weekend?
Lube and maintenance: Likely
Brakes and wheels:
Suspension and steering: Hardcore
Fuel and exhaust: Does an empty tank count?
Engine and clutch (includes cooling): Yep
Electrical:Yep
Body and interior:Yep
Tranny:

See, there are a few you can be thankful NOT to have visited. Glad Daun is
relaxing on his weekends at least...keep me posted on the naming of THIS
one, it'll have to be a beaut, like Medusa or something. Or a mythical
she-wolf...or a Halloween theme..
