“supported the export of

“The hundreds of thou-
sands of Canadian workers
who face, those kinds of
dangers every day will not
have their questions an-
swered and their lives pro-
tected until .we get some
people down there — and I
hope to be one of them — who

“While it's comforting to
be an expert on one thing it's
a little: difficult to be an

said in apparent response to

Kristiansen’s remarks.
The lack of co-ordination
between federal and pro-
vincial legislation was “quite

basea, Fraser, Columbia and

“What an environmental
holocaust,” he said. “If you or
I could sit down today and
renegotiate that treaty it
would be a lot different, but I
think honesty has to be ap-
plied'to all sides.”

Kristiansen pointed out
that NDP MPs Bert Herridge
and Ran Harding, Brisco's

How fo ge

Itis simple to buy a used
car these days — advice is
offered from many sources to
guide the hapless consumer
through the pitfalls of hidden
rust, unscrupulous dealers
and engines that go pffft
three days after the. sale.

But what about the in-
nocent sellers who only want
to get a fair price for their
well-maintained personal
car?

The British Columbia
Automobile Association has a
few suggestions to assist car
owners obtain good market
value for their vehicles.

It goes almost without
saying that the car should be
in good mechanical condition
and must be presented for
sale as clean and shiny as
possible.

When doing the final
clean-up, don't overlook
these points: = -

e Clean and vacuum the
trunk: Jumper cables and
empty transmission fluid
cans littering the compart-
ment indicate the car is less
than reliable. ‘

e Remove accumulated
dirt from wheel wells with a
wire brush so a prospective
purchaser can see there isn't
any rust. Resist the temp-
tation to spray wheel wells
with undercoating or paint —
it looks suspicious,

@ It’s. good idea to have
the engine compartment
steam-cleaned or de-greased

— ‘this ie t the oppor.
tunity e engine has
no Yovitte nas like off
leaks. A dab of Armor-all or
the equivalent wiped over
the engine, especially the
radiator shroud and air clean-
er, will perk-up the, engine
appearance.

e Wash all lenses inside
and out for extra sparkle.

e Remove all bumper
and windshield stickers (ex-
cept motor vehicle test stick-
ers) as a, prospective pur-
chaser may not appreciate
your humor or affiliations.

e@ Wax the license plates
and tighten all bolts. Bat-
tered plates could lead a
buyer to presume the car

‘special’ to-give it a market
edge: ., é
e Ensure ‘the driver's
seat adjusts easily. A buyer
may have to adjust the seat
to take a test drive and it's
embarrassing when one must
struggle to move the seat. A
few drops of oil should allow
it to slide smoothly on the
runners. Make sure all seat-

-belts retract smoothly.

e@ Replace all knobs and
trim pieces. Cheap to buy,
simple to replace and gives a
car a well-tended look.

e Replace or cover the
scuff: mat on driver's’ side
floor. Replace pedal rubbers.

e Lay, out’ the jack and
wheel wrench in the trunk so
a customer can confirm the
existence and make sure they
fit the car and wheels, If the
car has’ specialty or mag
wheels point out that stand-
ard wheel nuts for the spare
are included, if applicable.

Don't tease people look-
ing.at your car by telling

‘them what they can't have. If

the radio and foglights are
not included with the sale
rémove them — or say so
when you're showing the car,
not just before the papers are
signed. Such action smacks of
of underhanded techniques
and may sour the deal.
