Is your Dad's car a manual or auto?

Do you know any other things they are doing besides fixing all of the normal problems?

Awesome Goodyman!!!! I can't imagine your excitement & how hard it has been too keep this under wraps.   What kind of input have you had in the planning and implementation?    Can't wait to hear about the outcome!
