Long ago I bought a motorcycle to take the miles off my (Dad's) precious VW Karmann Ghia (that was the excuse, anyway). One day I tried to change the oil on the motorcycle and cracked the oil pan trying to tighten the drain bolt. Cost $70+ to get a new pan back in 1987 I think. Soooooo, I did the same thing as you.

But, it gets far, far worse. While getting parts for my motorcycle, I totaled my (Dad's) Ghia!!!!!!!!!!!

Irony is a cruel mistress,
