Oh, and then you get PB Blaster/brake fluid/fuel all over your exposed wounds.

Actually, that one isnt bad at all with the right tools. You dont even need to get your hands in there.

No, no - I'll go with the number 7 cylinder spark plug on a 4th Gen F-Body. Reference my war wounds:

Anybody looking for a nice Z? They gave me 28 for it when I traded it in, they sure aren't making much.

Used 2011 Nissan 370Z Touring

Been there done that, had the hands and arms, just not with a 4th Gen F-Body. The MGB did have some tight corners for some of the stuff I did. Rust was my enemy since it was Washington State in the late 70's. (salt) And the ex's Pinto. Then just building other peoples hot rods. I don't have the pics to prove it though. Gloves are the resolution for some of this. Think I may invest in a pair.

Wow, you got 28? That was a hell of a trade-in if you ask me.

On the other hand, I don't know how well you did with your truck yet. AHEM.

I have several pairs of work gloves, but I BELIEVE that space was extremely tight (enough that the gloves were catching on everything) and I needed tactile feedback while I was working on it at the time. That made gloves a non-option at the time.

Yes, it took a lot of haggling, they offered it to me sight unseen. The most I got at other dealerships said the most theyd give me is 24-25 and they wouldnt budge. This one was so desperate to get rid of this truck, they said theyd take a hit on the trade-in. They initiall offered me 25 but I wasnt going to let that fly.

The Ram was MSRP'd at a hair over 38. I got it OTD (taxes, tags, processing) for a little over 32. It had been sitting on their lot since mid January. They threw in a Tonneau cover as well.

Sounds like a pretty solid deal.

Just stopped to try to help a broken down Z. I think the poor guy's alternator went out. Nothing I could do.
