New gold tooth , new fender flare...

(you finish the lyrics, you know you want to...)


Yep, I'm a happy girl, though it may change when the freezing wears off. ( I 
really do have a new gold tooth)
I phoned three more yards today, and luckily I didn't check my daughter's 
notes, since she had already phoned the yard that had the part and they'd 
told her nope, nada. But when I phoned, they had one...
Anyways I should have the car back Monday, and then it'll be a whole new 
string of fun stuff to bug you about.
Thanks for the suggestions, and now back to Rocco talk. Mine are weathering 
out the storm, we've had two days of that nice horizontal rain so far this 
week.
So as usual, thanks guys. And watch out for Pontiacs, eh?
Cathy
