Welcome HHR, I'm also an old car restoration guy and Chevy hhr fan, well, a Chevy guy, the HHR is OK, a better PT Cruiser, ever hear that one? I like all kind of cars, of 11 projects or parts cars I have just one is a Chevy at the moment. You should be able to find a lot of questions about fixing most anything on your Crossfire if you need to, with 194k Miles I have found a lot of info on my many needed fixes.
