  11. i could care less about merican brands anymore i learned the hard way about their true "reliability" the engine was strong couldnt say the same for the rest of its components. which is why i now drive a Volvo 850. only new cars i plan on buying in the future, neither are American or high end but they sure are appealing
  12. i heard alcohol works good. i went with this stuff because the alumilite stuff was too problematic is a really cheap grade plasticine
