[QUOTE="John_Fengel, post: 1052531, member: 73810"] Well not quite today but very recently. Fixed the overhead console display for probably the fourth time in 23 years I've owned my Gen 1 ST. Also replaced 2 Door Striker Bushings that had finally worn out. I was going to make new ones from some PEX Tubing but the OD was a little large and not having a lathe, just bought the Dorman ones from Amazon and used the Bushings from them. I'm glad to say they were an exact fit. The doors close like new. I also had the Driver's Seat bottom cushion rebuilt since I could not find a replacement. That's the second time I've done that. Then the most depressing item was in the 23 years I've owned it, I never put even a small dent in it and about a month ago, I backed into a stone mail box structure, scratched the Bumper Cover and broke the plastic reinforcing bar. It also put a deep scratch in the fender below the Taillight. Quotes to fix it are all over the place. Almost no one wanted to use wrecking yard parts so the cost is very high. I'm looking for the parts now but that was depressing to say the least. Other than that it still runs great and with 215,000 miles uses absolutely no oil, original transmission, starts every time and idles rock solid. The Bumper fiasco was a real bummer!! [/QUOTE]
