Ya, may as well. MY wife and daughter will be driving it so I want it safe. The way the car was maintained , or not, Id just assume replace everything at once and be done. Instead of pulling it apart every weekend changing one thing.

That whole list of stuff, including the top etc, was about a $1k. Bringing my grand total to about $2k for this car, including the orig purchase price and the new clutch parts.

I think the rear brakes and struts, bearings etc are about $300, which Ill probably order in a few weeks, after I get back to some work on the cavy.
