Too late on the rebuild of the front struts.
As far as the rear shocks though, it looks like the fuel tank is in the
way of the bolts. I don't know I am now sitting in the local pub enjoying a
few beers hoping the mechanic can figure it out without me. I thought maybe
we were missing something obvious. I mean from the seat I can see the top of
the shocks but they are behind sheet metal body panels with no plastic caps.
>From the trunk I can also see them but they are beneath the fuel tank.
Thank you so much for the info especially so quick.
You guys are too cool.

P.S. the lady at the tire shop was looking for vehicle info on the door
jamb. She asked me, "Where is this car made,'" in a thick Spanish accent?
"It says Paris." I told you it was a French car, I said. Hehe
