Saturn Sky

What do you get when the weather starts to turn cold? A convertible of course! We saw this little gem, and I've always liked this body style, so now I'm driving a 2008 Saturn Sky to work every day.

I needed to fix a few things, and she does have some high mileage, but oh what fun it is to drive! So far, I have rewired the reverse light, fabricated a replacement panel for the broken cup holder, fixed the glove box and adjusted the front fender so it stops hitting the passenger door when you open it. The previous owner was a smoker, but a week of cleaning and air fresheners has really helped with the smell. I have ordered two new wheels, as one of them is bent (although I can't feel it) and another has some curb rash. They should arrive in a few days. My plan is to enjoy the little roadster, probably fix up the little dings and dents, and maybe paint it this spring. Who knows, if the power train ever gives up, you never know if a LS might find its way under the hood.
