I have a 1993 Toyota Tercel that has severe oxidation on several of the car's original panels. Can anyone suggest how I can get this oxidation taken care of and the rest of the car to shine like the replaced hood and right finder that were replaced in 2003 after an accident? Thanks

We are trying to explain to our almost 16-year-old son how expensive his car insurance will be, but I can't find anything on the web to prove it to him. I would settle for just an high/low average to show him.

I think I was a bit too Zen for most of you the first time I posted the question.
It was indeed a full question, because:
1) 'why' is a query indicator - for what cause or reason,
2) 'are' to exist or live, and
3) 'hubcaps' is the subject.
So, if it has to elabourated on, 'why do people use hubcaps at all? They serve no useful function in that they don't make your car turn better, go faster or reduce your running costs. Not in any shape or form.
Someone is obviously making a mint out of them because you have to
a) buy them with your car, (no-one ever advertises free hubcaps with every car, do they?)
b) have to replace them, which happens at an alarming rate according to the sheer number of them at the roadsides.
So, wouldn't it be a good idea to specify 'no hubcaps' for a discount on your next motor? Then you could paint your hubs yellow, or with pretty clouds/rabbits/flowers, just as you please.
Save the planet - do without hubcaps!

I own a 1987 BMW 735i. The vehicle has been in the family for several years and its age is showing. My son and I decided to try and find a body kit for it, but we are having some problems finding them.

My mom's 1989 Buick Century has been sitting for about 6 months. We drove it about twenty miles and the whole time it was sputtering and sounded like it was missing horribly. We went into a store and when we came out it wouldn't crank. It was trying to turn over but it just wasn't happening. We had the car towed home and the next day it started fine. We drove it a quarter mile and it wouldn't stay cranked. We let it sit for a few days and then it cranked fine and is sounding really good. I'm just afraid to drive it because I'm afraid I'll get somewhere and it won't crank. Do you think it's the fuel pump? This car is fuel injected so it doens't have a carburator. Someone told us to clean the distributor cap, but it doens't have one. Any ideas?

So some IDIOT just hit me the other day and took off and my car got pretty damaged. I have a 99 Hyundai Tiburon. I am for sure going to need a new door and some fixing of the back area above the tire. The inside of the door is fine though. Does ANYBODY know anything about cars that would be able to tell me any kind of estimate for this??

High cost of oil keeps on raising up! Device some other means to use alternative ways and invention to replace a fuel that keeps on giving us headaches. One is tapping water for its usefulness!

The issue is that Toyota corollas and the Matrix both use the unibar or solid axle in the rear, which creates a very jerky, bumpy, unpleasant ride. Toyota says it changed to the solid axle to keep the cost of these models low. Dumb choice! I don't want to buy a new Corolla if i have to deal with this cheapo axle-- it ruins the ride. But I am wondering if I can buy a Corolla with the intention of having a mechanic simply replacing it with the superior independant rear suspension, or if this will be too difficult and/or costly.

The vehicle I am interested in buying is around $18000. I am not sure if I should put as much cash ($6000) as possible as downpayment to lower the monthly payment. or should I keep more money in the bank account and pay less downpayment ($2000) and have higher payment? What do you think?
Thanks.
