konked out on the bay bridge. friggin transmission. it's hopeless, if it was a horse, I'd shoot it.
anyone know what I can do with this heap of crap now? I can fix it and sell it but then I'd spend more fixing it than what I'd get for selling it.

sell its parts on ebay or something

Is it a special car? Will you be distressed if you scrap it? Is it worth anything?
These are the questions you have to ask yourself.
I've got an old Ford Capri, it's totally unreliable, loads of stuff doesn't work and it costs a small fortune to run, but i love it.

I've always wanted to shove a car off a cliff up Fish Ranch Road.

now's the time for getting some really get photos of stuff to do to a car that you can't find on Getty.
The transmission is one of the most expensive things to fix on a car. If the car is more of a money vacuum than anything else, time to start putting that money toward something a little more reliable. You can also donate it (tax write off) to certain organizations. They can probably get a mechanic to fix it for them for free.

Japanese car. with tons of abuse.
oh if I had the money I'd get a jetta...
I'm considering scraping. I just want to know if I can get any money off of that.

My dad tried to donate his car to charity. They told him to do a series of repairs on the car before they would accept it.
And it still ran fine. Go figure.

mayo, first of all - that didn't even make sense. Second, you're so cute when you talk about things you don't know much about.
:D

If you are fully insured, leave the car in Richmond for a while.

I'm sure everyone really appreciates how you hi-jack their thread to make fun of me. Don't you have any meatballs to make? why don't you share the new face you came up with with everyone?

hahahaha
reminds me of school "what's so funny jox, why don't you share it with the rest of the class?"... when we made small penises in our notebooks.
