specifications because of how the tow bent the parts connecting the
rear tires (I don't know anything about cars).

i am looking at an antique truck. The original engine was replaced with a
Chevy 350 crate engine. Otherwise it looks original. Problem is, when you

My 88 Chrysler started to smoke so the head gasket was changed. When the
head was off I noticed the #1 cylinder was oily and black. I thought
changing the head gasket would cure the problem but still smokes . Could
the valve guide/oil seals be the culprit?

I'm getting a gradually increasing road noise on a '95 Corolla, 80k
