Your car looked great, but being a J body driver, I could not get over the 1980 Mirada, just down from you. It had 85,000 miles, but looked like new. By the way, walking in Gate 1, the first thing I saw was a Mirada front grill and bumper. I later saw someone carrying it . so it didn't last long.

I think its time for a new battery, in my Cordoba. What are people using? I think that it is supposed to use a Group 24. But it looks as though a Group 27, should also fit. Thank you

I notice you are from Ontario. The moldings, that surrounded the woodgrain, on those Town and Country's, rotted, badly, within a few years. They looked awful. Not surprised that someone removed them.

Beautiful car, beautiful condition. I have a white 82 Cordoba, that I have had since new. Can I ask what radio you have installed in your Fifth? I have a 2002 Sebring, convertible, that my wife wants me to put in a radio, with back up camera. It takes a 1.5 DIN, Thanks

The push buttons on my radio, no longer work. I bought an original, replacement radio, a few years ago, at a flea market, but notice that the buttons are very sticky. Does anyone know, if they can be cleaned or lubricated?

Sorry, for your loss

When things were still made in Canada

Glad to see any photos. My one day there was Saturday. I spent too much time looking at parts, not enough looking at all the cars. One day is not enough time, especially with how hot it was on Saturday. The place is huge.

I must have missed Kasper. I had one day, Saturday, there, and covered as much as I could, but as the day went on, and it kept getting hotter, I missed a lot. As far as J bodies go, I think I saw three or four. I did meet one person, who is trying to make new replacement rear fender extensions...

Thanks for all the info. right now, I'm heading off to Carlisle, Pennsylvania

Thanks for the advice. I guess I'll leave it. One liter per year is not terrible. The mechanic who worked on the car, thought the transmission would have to come out.

The car is not used in winter. I added one liter last summer, then the mechanic added one liter last week. The cardboard that I keep under the car, in my garage,was soaked, He said it was dripping, while in his shop. He is retired, and has a hoist, in a barn, where he does minor service on cars.

I had the oil and coolant changed, on my 82 Cordoba. The mechanic mentioned that the trans was leaking from everywhere, and needed complete resealing. Does anyone have an idea, of how much this might cost? i haven't got an estimate, yet. Thank you.

Kirkland - Costco, comes with the best warranty!

I attempted to buy ticket and parking, on the Carlisle Event site, Didn't work first time, but will try again. I won't know any more than you, until I get there - Saturday. But I am looking forward to it.
