the engine exploded (threw a rod) and i had to end up having a new engine placed in it. while that was going on my dad and i fixed the remaining things – console cover, door handles, etc.

i went around to several junk yards today with the objective of finding the door handles and driver’s side locking mechanism i need for my truck. the ones i went to either didn’t have what i needed or where closed. i then decided to check ebay again and found exactly what i was needing – at least the door handles. i ordered it today.
i have a 1998 ford explorer in pretty good shape except for the fact that the front door lock doesn’t work and the rear door’s handles are broken. i want to fix these within the next three months. i’ve been saying this for a year.
