At some point, I'd recommend getting a fluorescent dye tracer kit (cheap) from you local auto parts store. Add some to the engine oil, drive for a couple of hundred miles and then using the magic glasses and flashlight (engine under tray removed) go over the entire engine, front to back, top to bottom and look for the source of all your oil leaks. These will only get worse with time and If they are from the front, do all the seals while you replace the water pump and belts (and rollers if they are loose and noisy). Better to do it all while you're in there. DO replace the tires ASAP. This is a major safety issue. All the other stuff can be dealt with on a day to day basis. Craigslist, ebay and this forum will prove to be your most valuable resources. Welcome to the adventure. We're here and glad to help.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
