VBdenny Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Hi Ashley, sorry to hear of your accident. working on a car in winter weather is about as nasty work as there you can find. Even that Dirty Jobs guy on TV wouldn't do it. Not sure what the junkyard situation is there (probably buried in snow) but they are a wealth of very inexpensive replacement parts on the spot. I've often seen your year and model in local yards here in Virginia Beach. I use also use junk cars to learn how to take things apart in cars I don't want to break things.
