Today I took Kermit over the Maaco for body work and a paint job. I had procured replacement front and rear bumper covers. All of the body work needed is a result of the two years I lived in the French Quarter in New Orleans. Essentially all the street parking was parallel parking, and sooner or later, that is going to take a toll. The car is mechanically in great shape for a 24 year old vehicle. No rust. The car has just over 160,000 miles on it and I have no doubt it is good for another 100,000 miles. Once I get the exterior in good shape, I need to address the leather interior.

They said the body work would take a couple of weeks.
