Your 4t60e is probably leaking from the axle seal. And as for the white car having issues with starting I would definitely check the fuel filter if not already done. And I love every time you update this thread. So many good memory's had in the back of a cutlass or century a body. Also my first accident was in a 88 of the same vintage.

Was your first accident also a good memory in the back seat?

I don't really get this, it sounds like poo poo.

It's also a custom chassis with a non-Volvo engine in it... it's only a "Volvo Amazon" in that they've chopped up part of a Volvo to make the roof.

Cutting things off for better performance is a pretty Amazon-like approach, though.

How much does a cannon cost? How do you spend 3 million dollars firing a cannon? I'm genuinely confused and would really have trouble running up that much cash doing something so simple.

On August 20, 2005, in a private funeral, Thompson's ashes were fired from a cannon. This was accompanied by red, white, blue and green fireworks—all to the tune of Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit in the Sky" and Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man".[50] The cannon was placed atop a 153-foot (47 m) tower which had the shape of a double-thumbed fist clutching a peyote button, a symbol originally used in his 1970 campaign for Sheriff of Pitkin County, Colorado.
