You still have these shocks? David

All that makes sense. Since I plan to keep mine, then my decision to paint makes more sense for me. I would actually like a '98-'99 model, but I don't want payments. I really bought a car that was not treated well with this one. I have repaired a number of things on it in the 2 years I've had it. But now it's almost up to par. David

My thinking is the value of the car will be raised at least as much as the paint job will cost. And I'm planning on driving this for a while since mechanically it is pretty sound. I think the bad paint will push the value of the car quite a bit below book. Maybe I'm wrong. David

My car looks just like that one. Definately clear coat failure. On mine the front hood and one quarter panel had been repaired before I got the vehicle. My quote to get the entire car stripped and repainted is $1000 + materials. I'm thinking $1500+ out the door. But this guy has a shop in his garage. Going to a normal business would cost at minimum, twice as much. David

Hi, I think my LS400's (1994) alternator needs to be replaced. I have a new battery and I'm sometimes getting a total discharge after sitting only 2 or 3 days. I took it to my mechanic for some other stuff and he said he had it on the rack running for about an hour when it died. He tested the alternator and it was not producing any juice. Funny thing is, its been fine the last couple of days again. In fact I was having the problem but in the first week he had it, it started up just fine every time. I've had to jump it several times when it was in my garage. We just fixed a leak in the power steering pump, but it was leaking into the engine, causing white smoke when I started it. However it did leak sometime last year and spill on the garage, but my mechanic got it sealed back up so no more leaks on the floor, but I'm thinking maybe something messed up the alternator. Any ideas where I can get one without spending $400+? David
