Confession

I must confess.  After removing the whole interior, all exterior trim on the 86 a couple of months ago in preparation for repairs and paint I've done nothing else with it.

I did however clean up the 92 LX and rebuild the whole front suspension.  Now I'm driving it daily.  In addition after complaining about how big and sloppy the LX was that now I'm liking it a whole lot.  I'm liking the power seat that the 86 doesn't have, I'm liking the Kenwood stereo that the 86 doesn't have and I really like the Automatic temperature control a/c the very best that the 86 doesn't have.  Now that the front end is all rebuilt and aligned the rear end follows the front end around real good.  And to top it all off it runs fantasticly smooth, no leaks and in general a much nicer car than the 86.:birdsmily:

I also sold the 82 Mercury Cougar GS station wagon two months ago to a Mercury collector in Texas.

Please forgive me.:bowdown:
