You must be mad, because it is a clock and not the radio..ha I have bigger problems now, Wednesday when I was putting it away for the winter in it's little cove in the garage I hit the engine hoist jack and put a nice dent and scratch in the rear driver quarter. I'm sure that I'll never get the paint to match. Oh well that is what I get for trying to put it in by myself with only about 6 inches for error. But I'm such a good dad so my daughter can park in garage this winter again.

Well, clock and radio have the same number of X's in them, so it was 50-50 for which one you were belly-aching about. Too bad about the scratch. Didn't I give you the paint with the car that I had mixed for the spoiler? I was sure I did, but let me know if I didn't and I'll dig through the box of paint that is in the back room.

That sucks Ric. At least with the cover on you don't even notice it.

Ha I fixed the radio long ago, I do have the paint but I'm not sure enough to paint the whole side. I not a expert but I'm sure it will not blend in without painting the whole side. I will have to have it looked at in the spring.

Hank, unfortunately everytime I walk pass the car I see it in my head and get mad at myself as it is the stupidest thing I've done in a long time....but I'm sure I'll do another stupid thing in the near future to make me forget it for a while.

Ric, what a bummer. I have a small garage and grumpy and I would always tell the kids to be very careful when walking around the car. But every spring a couple of those "Not me" scratches would show up. I always just thought of it as something that gave the car character. Just never makes it any easier to add something else to the "to do" list.
