well, to tell you the whole reason i'm going bondo... first off, it's cheap. second, i bought this car for 1500 bucks, and then spent another 620 on a new clutch. and another 7.80 on one used fuel injector. that brings me up to a total of about 2,130 spent on a '92 fastback SE fivespeed with 178,000 miles on it, running a solid, smooth-idling engine with a brand-new clutch. KBB private party value, if excellent condition, is a little under 2500, but i'll bet you that if i fix the rust and fix a few scratches on the front bumper, i could get 3 grand for it. i'd be selling it in less than a month, and it'll be months before the bondo starts to fall apart- if it does. i'm doing a nice job...
anyway, getting it professionally fixed would shoot me over the KBB, so i'm not gonna do that. i need the profit, because i just bought an '89 with a shot motor for 500 bucks. guess what i'm gonna drop in it <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
