    when you lookin to sell it?
    Never let your enemy see your emotions, for it is the one weapon they will value most.

    Huh? Everyone dresses up their vehicles before sale, if you don't you're doing yourself out of more money.

    Yeah and as the buyer, you'd tell the seller "... this car is a mess, it's going to cost me heaps to make it look nice, the best I can offer you is $1,250.

    So long as it runs fine the paintwork shouldn't matter......

    Still stick by preferring to be able to see what it is exactly that I'm buying..

    Is the car manual or auto..?

    What sort of k's?

    Plonk something ridiculous on it... ONO.... Gives room for offers and you are more than likely going to end up with what you want for it...

    You buy a car with a crappy paint job... Its you're choice....

    You buy a car with hidden crappy paint job... its not... Guess I've just been brought up being overly fair...

    As a mechanic my old man wouldn't purchase anything if it had been obviously touched up... I wouldn't want it done to me... And I wouldn't do it to others...

    My crap upbringing..

    Will shut up now...

    I'm not trying to cover up a crappy paintjob. I'm trying to remove the oxidisation and dulled finish then polish it back to it's original condition.

    I'd totally want to be sure the paintwork could be brought up to ok, if it is stuffed it will be porous & rust easier.

    What is a Coushin anyway?

    [hmm, tries google search] Connecticut's premiere youth band, Pin Coushin
    um, ok.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
