    WD40 paint refresh

    As much as I like the WD40 smell I am looking forward to going the Pledge route once the WD40 fades. Come to think of it I'm going to start saving my bacon fat and use that.

    Mirror glass m998

    The mirror glass is broke in both my mirrors. Big piece in one mirror small piece in the other. Does anyone know if Napa would carry just the mirror portion. Does it interchange with some factory mirror.

    Tips for buying off GovPlanet/IronPlanet?

    I just picked mine up yesterday and am very happy with what I got. I was not able to inspect mine, I went off the website inspection/photos. It was accurate. I found one that ran with no obvious issues, I didn't want a non runner. I watched the auctions every week for a couple months to...
