My dad is my mechanic most of the time. Unfortunately the BCM is the sort of thing that actually needs a computer to reprogram, or the car just won't run. And those computers are so expensive that even a lot of smaller body shops just don't have them.
The funny thing about old cars versus new cars... you know how many computers my car has? Three. You know how many a new car has? Double-digits. It's getting really hard for the small shops to fix a lot of things because of all the computers involved. =/

My first car was an 88 Jeep that I got in 1999 and lasted me almost 4 years, but it was a dud and the engine was mostly new by the time it died. My car right now is a 96 Jeep that I've had a few years, and except minor issues that the previous owners didn't keep current, it's been a fine little car. Though I am trying to replace it some time this year with something newer. Which most likely will be a POS cuz they just don't make them like they used to!
