SAVE THE PINK CAR

Liz was putting off getting her head gasket repaired by just refilling the coolant all the time. Someone told her to put water instead of coolant in it and she was putting straight tap water in it and it ruined it. Needless to say her brother who is a mechanic was furious as he said if she even mixed coolant with water it had to be distilled. UGH. Needless to say it was a long day yesterday.

She broke down as it was smoking on the way home from Fremont but for some reason took an exit trying to find a safe place to leave it until it could get towed. She got a ride home and then called the towing company that spent over 2 hours looking for her car and could not find it. So I left work early and went looking and after an hour I found it and it was on the driveway to a persons farm which she thought was a regular road. We got it to the repair shop but my son said it will need a whole new engine now as straight water ruins it. :(

I told her maybe we could do some kind of fundraiser for "save the pink car". Any ideas???
