I have a 96 Grand Prix SE 3100 that has craped out on my mom. The engine is toast so my options are to scrap my future project 85 long wheel base diesel and 99 Saturn and buy a yard engine or scrap all three and find a $1200 car for her. Times are very tight so I am looking at all options.
I am speculating that the auction the Thursday after Christmas might hold a few decent choices but I am at an impasse. The car is a very good driving car, and has no major problems other then the engine taking a nose dive. I can scrap all of them and purchase a unknown from the auction (after on sight internet search and OBD scan) or just swap the engine.
Great thing to come home to after being out of town on a island working. :sad:
One way or another I will fix the problem....just have to decide on how. Sorry for the rant...just drinking and pondering the best solution to the situation...before they ship me back off to the island.
