Ku-sama's new whip

I call her... Kathleen.

She needs some work, but I picked her up for a VERY nominal fee of nothing down, and $600 owed to a friend.

planning has started awhile ago on what is to be done.

but unlike a lot of people on this forum, I'm going to be fixing up the car before I do anything system related (except a HU)

227k miles and still running strong.

the needs list:

Hard Core tune up (Fuel filter, plugs, plug cables, distributor rotor+cap, ect)

valve gasket (Drip drip a little bit)

new exhaust manifold +gaskets (leaky leaky)

new clutch (slippery when worn down)

new tires (not needed, but I want some more grip)

um, your going to spend 3x the price of the car in PARTS alone for these repairs:

Hard Core tune up (Fuel filter, plugs, plug cables, distributor rotor+cap, ect)

valve gasket (Drip drip a little bit)

new exhaust manifold +

gaskets (leaky leaky)

new clutch (slippery when worn down)

new tires (not needed, but I want some more grip)

If it was a COOL looking car that would be worthwhile I would say GO FOR IT but my god thats a granny car. You pwned yourself. . . . i think id raher have a non-running CRX

x2.

seems to be alot more work than its worth.

if it has some sort of sentimental value or something of the such then ok, but other than that..why..

 
I will bet you money that if you take that sticker off the back window all your car problems will go away! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/graduate.gif.d982460be9f153bb54e5d4cb744f6ae8.gif
