Thanks everyone for the words of welcome!
KidSpace - Thanks for checkin' out my web site. Today I could probably migrate it to a different format (like CarDomain or something like that). When I started it, the only way to have a site of any value was "do it yourself".
And Taz, thanks for the congrats with my Grand Am. This last winter was a ROUGH one on it. In northern Ohio, the '93-'94 Grand Ams have common areas they rust and mine had eluded all the appearances until this last winter (and sometimes I feel mine was one of the LAST ones in my parts to rust like that). I changed out the head gaskets at 188K miles last October, November had a sad incident with a control arm breaking (which banged in a fender). But, the drive train is still strong! I can't WAIT for the odometer to roll 200K (car is 197-198K, but I traded the instrument cluster for full gauges and it's reading about 191K). But SOON, it will do it. Bought in '03, I wanted 5 years or 200K miles and I'm getting both and it's been a good ride and some good ol' maintenance goes a LONG way!
