    Congratulations, man. You've just inherited the "Patron Saint of Automotive Lost Causes" from me. No question.

      then it started to rain



      i am a bit worried now as it looks like only the driver side was replaced before the passenger side is still all factory fresh with the same stock head gasket. driver side was clearly an aftermarket felpro

      thinking maybe should have gotten the head checked out.... oh well it's on i'll just suffer later

          If it goes again I'd take that as a sign to put in the V-8.

            might not have to deal with that some one at work offered me 900 as it sits

            i might just take it put tires on the focus and start going full on the beetle
