Hey Troy,

Nice looking bench seat!!! Sure can tell you've been hard at it, can't wait to see this project come together!

Front wheel bearing, aye? Hmmm... if I were you, I'd just nip it in the bud and replace the Drive Axles. I don't know if you all have Advance Auto stores out there, but they offer trade-in on your old ones, so the final cost isn't that bad.

Just had the drive axles replaced on my '96 Toyota Camry last Spring, final cost was $112..... the first major repair job I've had to do on the old girl, who proudly displays 279,182 on the odometer!

Geezzz... look at the time! Sleepy [|)]

OK.....I guess its a FINE SCALE thing....cuz I can copy the address ovrer at a 'other' hobby message board I hang out at.

Try it now!Big Smile [:D]

I just bought a used car today so I have been busy....no further work has been done on the bench.

I think I got a good deal:

1988 Chev Corsica....the add said 800.00 I paid 600.00.....very GOOD condition! even the A.C. & all electrical works!, nice interior!
Just some faded paint and a whell bearing problem in the left front wheel......gulp....I hope.

Sorry Troy,

Can't access your pictures.... get a generic Yahoo sign-in page, I enter my ID, then it takes me to an area where *I* may upload pictures.... [:0] Re-verify the URL....... speaking of pictures, I seem to recall saying I was going to post some last night.... oooops.

"Shoot low, Ed, I think their crawling!"
