        Unfortunately, the rims won't sit properly because of the hub. I've listed them for sale on Kijiji. Hoping to get $80, which is what I paid for them.

          I finished work early and went to get new tires. Hercules "Avalanche" mounted on the stock rims.

            Picked up the car on Monday. The passenger-side frame rail has been patched. I'll try to take a pic later.

              service up-date

              I'm taking the Merc into the bodyshop to have the dog-legs repaired tomorrow. I'll take pics when the work is completed.

                The shop manager figures the car will pass inspection in January as is, so I've decided to wait until 2010. He had the metal sanded and painted, which was "free of charge" and looks better than before.

                    Hard to take pics without the car on a hoist...First pic is the passenger-side frame rail, which was patched. Second pic is the driver's side. I applied premium rock-guard undercoating to both frame rails a few weeks ago.

                          bull-shit...

                          I just had the line from the master-cylinder to the valve replaced last week...On my drive home from work Friday, the car experienced brake fade. When I got home, I looked underneath and brake fluid was leaking from under the driver's side front. I dropped the car off to the same shop tonight, so they can deal with it tomorrow. If the problem isn't solved after this visit, I'll be taking my business elsewhere!

                            That could have turned out really bad.

                                Luckily my commute doesn't include any hills! The driver's side brake line has been replaced, so the car is now safe to drive again...
