to begin with, my car kinda clunks sometimes( not always) when i slow down or when i accelerate, so its either the ball joints, tie joints or what i think it is( u joints). i finally found some u joints on jc whitney for a '62 galaxie for 20 bucks. the question is, how much would the labor be to replace them?
next, i cant roll my front driver side window down. the window crank fell off along with the spring for it. the question is, what am i missing since when the crank fell down, i was able to latch it on for a little while and roll it down but i cant do that anymore. how much?
ive driven the galaxie almost three thousand miles since i got it, so that means its time for an oil change. the problem is, the left hood hinge has snapped and i dont want to touch it until i replace that. can i wait another week or two to get the hinges before the oil gets changed?
i drive the galaxie everyday, and i drive safe and conservatively. what can i do to ensure it lasts a long time? i bought it for 5 grand and it has been restored already, so i dont want to let go of her..... i wash her twice a week, nothin stupid, i think smart.....im goin to get the oil change within two weeks after the hinges, and will get a full tune up in another three thousand miles.... she has a total of 63,000 miles and shes a four door town sedan with the 292 thunberbird v8 and ford-o-matic 2 speed transmission. if i take care of her, how long will she last? can i drive her for years without worrying about the engine or transmission. when i took it to the mechanics earlier( couple of months ago) for a tune up, they said it was in great shape and i got a deal for five grand( another grand for repairs, six total)I have a few questions on repairs for my car, will you help me out please?
