spring. That way you can drive where you want to go without<BR>worries. You
can even park at the tight front spot at the grocery store ;-)<BR>Then come
spring - sell the car (there's always a demand for cheap cars) and<BR>properly
fix your VW... which sounds like another block is in order.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I do have to agree with Dave on this one. It's either a replacement car,
or an engine swap. Especially since you'll be wanting to keep your T-3s out of
the salt. It might get cold next week, but with the way this winter has been
going, you'll be needing that cap in place some days, and get away with it off
others. Not a fun way to deal with winter at all. :O
