The car never wants for anything and besides a great diet of Mobil 1 and good premium gas she decided to chomp on my head today. I was working on the drooping headlight fix (a slightly longer bolt) when the jaw (hood ) dropped and put a pretty good cut in my scalp. I had made the mistake of not pushing the hood all the way up. The hood struts are still good but only if fully extended will they work. It could have been worse at least the hood is aluminum (2005 STR) instead of steel. I think I actually got hit by one of the pointy curved parts that goes around the headlight. Lesson learned: push that jaw (hood) all the way up.

 

Hmmm.........

Have you ever seen the film 'Christine' ?

 

Maybe a late xmas present will soothe the cats temper

 

get new hood struts soon they will give up completely

the cheapest ones on ebay are really strong
