"Cheap Reliable Transportation"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I had to replace the radiator when I bought it.

Two years latter I had to put a used ECM in it at about 180,000 miles.

The rest was just maintenance.

I just took my last trip in it because the back struts have broken through the body.

General comments?

I bought this car from a friends girlfriend for 100 dollars.

I got 3 years and 80,000 miles of pretty much trouble free use out of it.

The car has done everything I have wanted it too.

It was comfortable.

The instrumentation is easy to read.

It still runs like a top.

I am really sad to see it go.

But I have bought another one to replace it this time for 50 dollars.

I looked a little more closely at the rear of this car. The springs are just weak and I now drive it in between 300-350 miles a week.

I have finaly replaced my sedan with a 87 subaru GL wagon that is 4wd. I sold my sedan for $300 and the woman who bought it just adores it.
