i dont know how many people have come to the cross roads of having the tough decision of throwing money on their car which they really like or letting it go for a cheap because it will cost alot to fix up.

below are pics of my car.

What it needs for me to fully be happy with it is about 4k worth of work.
that includes
replacing the engine and clutch
respray in red as bonnet and roof are turning pink
and probably throw on an exhaust and muffler and i think it will look the goods. i think its more a q of if i think its worth it or sell it and buy another corolla with everything done

what would you do or have u done

New engine and clutch? Drop a 4agze in.

Respray the bonnet and roof will result in a car that has a bright red bonnet and roof as the rest will be more faded than they appear, so you'll have to spray the lot.

Only do the exhaust if you have to, or if you drop a 4agze in. Otherwise it's a waste of money turning it into a fart box.

But it's up to you in the end. You could sell it and experience another model of toyota, or you could keep it as the devil you know..... (in other words, you know what needs to be fixed on this one with no surprises). Wink
