have you tried puting it up on craigslist?
there are lots of people on there looking to buy cars that are craped and they fix em on the cheap and re sell em for 3x the price so u never know.
edit: and from the pics it looks really clean so put it up for 3k and see if u get any nibbles
Yup, it is on craigslist right now. It may come down to me just replacing the tranny and the heads for it to sell. I have already started to look around for the parts...I know some people would rather just drive away with it (and be able to back up) so maybe it is worth my time.
Until I decide to just fix it hopefully somebody will check it out...
