    I'd tell my younger, healthier me...when calipers start leaking, replace them. Scotchbrite pad and break cleaner does not fix a rusty piston. Would have meant I got to school on time, and the off duty sheriff I rear ended would have had his minivan a little longer. Live and learn....

    What would I say to a younger version of me in regards to the automotive world? I'd say what my mother still tells me....... get a different hobby and save some freaking money! Mom is an accountant.

    Yeah partially why I sold my Z28, I loved that car but I want to retire comfortably, in 30 years when I am in my 60's and have plenty of retirement I can buy a bunch more toys.
