As you can see, under the hood wasnt very clean.

here is my dad checking it out, and you can see that the pin-stipe is almost worn off.

Here is where the lady backed into a truck, breaking the reflecor, and denting the trunk lid. All minor, yet expensive damages.

Doesn't it look great?!?

dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta

months later, the alternator craped ou, and this is what it looks like after you take it out.dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta

Here is a closer look at the broken reflector.
dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta

we replaced the reflector, and are removing the back bumper.
dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta

so my dad and I, (mostly my dad) took off most of the rear of the car
in fact, we did take it ALL off. the only things we didnt touch, were the cables coming out of the body, and the crash absorbers.
i also took out the seats and center consol carpet
i think something was growing in here, and some kind of food particulate

dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta drivers side carpet. lots of change.

and look at all that ash!!!!
dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta

and the damaged plastic bumper covering thing in a vice or something
dadisms's 1989 Buick Reatta

and here is the clean carpet, took me over an hour, and the waste water looked like coke or pepsi!

wow i tried the same little ipod set up it worked but because my tape player doesn't work I cant keep the tape in while the ipod is playing. do you even need a tape to play the ipod because my tape player doesn't play unless theirs a tape in it? is their a way to trick it into thinking theirs a tape in it even though their isn't?
