Since I'm not working Fridays until 2011 I took a ride over to Advance Auto Parts to see about getting new hood struts. They didn't have any and they couldn't be ordered. Looks like I'll just have to pick some up online. They are only about $20 each.
I stopped and filled up my gas can with 5 gallons of 93 octane, and went home. The Supra isn't registered or insured so I shouldn't take it on the road. I tried filling it up from the gas can, spilled some gas, and because it was so cold, the spout snapped and I spilled even more gas everywhere. Crap. Since its 30 degrees outside I couldn't use the hose to get rid of the gasoline, and I was afraid to start it and have it burn in my front yard. I used a few cups of water and waited an hour.
I was so mad that I was already having trouble that I took the plates off my Audi and put them on the Supra and drove to the gas station. Put in 10 gallons of 93, and bought a carwash, and took it through. It turns out that the Targa top does leak, the window doesn't make a great seal, but it could be because of the powerwasher blasting right at that part. Not sure how much it will leak in rainy conditions.
