Not to derail this topic but speaking of rubbing thru the paint! When I was young my parents were saving money to buy a car so one morning before my father left for work my mother gave him the money she had saved and told him to get a car on his walk home. She said about the time he was suppose to be home she heard a very loud rumbling coming from the driveway. She walks out there and there was my Father with a black on black hemi cuda with a tunnel ram poking thru the hood and it had one bucket seat! My mother said she was so pissed since there was 4 of us. My mother sat on a plastic milk krate and my brother and I sat on the sheet metal floor. She said he loved that car so much he rubbed thru the paint waxing it so much.
Rant over carry on !
