KA Update

i dont know if anyone remembers, but i bought a 95 240 about a month ago. well, since then, have learned that you really need to check into a car before you go out and buy one. i was EXTREMELY lied to about my car. but, i just figure that i will try to make the best out of my situation. so far, i (well, my mechanic)have replaced the head gasket, intake manifold gasket, plentum(SP?) gasket, front crank seal, AND my head was warped, so i got another head.THANK GOD MY FRIEND GAVE ME HIS MOTOR(he has an sr20 red top on the way).I was supposed to crank it today, to see if it worked, but there was a little more work to be done...ac put back in, etc. Anyway, enough about that. Is there anyone that knows any tricks to get dents out...and i have a big bend like thing right next to/under my bumper(bumper is fine...its that area near it )i have tried to pull at it, but i(only weighing 110), of course did nothing, but slid accross the floor. If anyone knows a little trick to get those dings and well, big ass dent out...my ears are wide open, i am trying to save as much money as possible. thanks

I don't know what you are talking about with this bent part of the car. Did the car have a clean title or is it salvaged? How much did you pick it up for?

You could always try one of those paintless dent removal services, I've seen some good results.
