The Huron Expositor, 1978-11-09, Page 36Worn shocks often sneaky
Unlike a tire that sud-
denly blows out with a
loud bang, worn shock ab-
sorbers can fail with little
advance warning: Yet
when shocks fail, the re-
sults can be just as peri-
lous as a blow-out.
To avoid such a danger,
ask your service man to
check shocks every time
the car is on the hoist
for a Tube job or similar
service.
This is particularly im-
portant if your present
shocks have more than
20,000 miles of wear on
them.

Takes to Do Job
Have yeti recently taken a
really good look at the finish
on your car? Studies by lead-
ing automotive service maga-
zines found three out of every
four cars are in need of body
repair and/or touch-up, work.
When checking your car,
chances are you'll find finish
defects' ranging from minor
stone-nicks to more sizeable
scratches, scrapes, or dents.
Clo.• --Amination may, even
produ• evidence of more seri-
ous damage with rust appear-
ing in the rocker panels, lower
portion of fenders, or at other
points.
This time of year is an espe-
cially important one to make
needed repairs. For winter
road conditions take a harsh
toll of car bodies.
Costing You Money
Regardless of the origina-
tion or extent of the present
damage, it's costing you money
every day it goes unattended.
Once paint is chipped away
and. bare metal is exposed,
corrosive action begins and
will continue to grow until
arrested and eliminated by
repair,
Metal deterioration can• also
occur from beneath the ear.
This usually 'Ives undetected
until rust appears on the out-
side surface after corroding
the.....,metal behind. (Under-
boating will, in 'most 'cases,
preient the,start of this latter
form of 'corrosion) .
In either case, the longer
• the damage. is neglected, the
more extensive and time con-
suming the repair becomes,
thus' increasing your repair
bill.
Once you'ge ready for re-
pairs, your next and most' im-
portant step•is to locate a rep-
utable. auto body repair and
•refinighing shop — one that
• hat- adequate facilities, mod-
em equipment, and experi-
enced personnel 'to do the job.
What $hop Can Do
Such a shop will have ample
parking and work space; mod-
ern metal working tools; qual,-
ity spray equipment; 'spray
booth' with proper exhaust for
dust-free paint jobs; force dry
(infrared) equipment for dry-.
ing fresh paint in minutes as
opposed to hours with air dry;
factory trained .spray opera-
tors. „
A shop with these qualifica-
tions can assure you of a first-
rate,.professional job in the
shortest possible- time,
Don't settle for a 50% job at
a bargain basement, price from
a shop that has makeshift fa,
,
cilities. It'll probably cost you
more in the long run through
costly re-work at a later date. '
When the original beauty
has been restored to your car,
don't be misled into believing
it, to be permanent.. New dam-
age is likely to occur at some
future date and corrosion will
once again attempt its ugly
deed.
Periodic checks and contin-
uous, proper maintenance are
your only assurance of pro-
longing the original finish life.
Do this faithfully and you'll
derive-the many-benefits_from
owning', driving, trading, or
selling a clean, rust-free car.
