Should I fix my car?

I appreciate the responses guys ccasion14:

Well, I read the op and some of the responses......Reminds me of my self when I was 23 but I had 7 vehicles and only 2 of them ran....

It is cool to have 3 or more vehicles, however, in this case, you really only need 2. One daily and one toy. Get rid of one of them and use the extra money to take the car you keep to a shop and have them fix it. I understand wanting to fix your own cars, however your daily is the car that you cannot afford to have go down for more than a few days. The Mustang is your toy....turn the wrench on that with the time you save.

To answer your question, just fix one of them, what ever that one may be. You will want to get better gaskets for your new shortblock anyhow.

Holy shit 7 at 23? Knowing me I'll be there before I know it. I just love cars man and can't have enough. If I could I would have 1 for everyday of the week lol. But I see what you mean. Unfortunately the only one I would consider getting rid of is the Grand Am and I can't sell it for shit because I don't know what's wrong with it and it's got almost 200k on it. It would be going to the scrap yard for a few hundred bucks. Not worth it to me.

Good call on the gaskets tho I really didn't even think about that... But man I'm not gonna lie I'll never send my car to a shop. Can't trust any of them.. I'll have a vehicle for 2 weeks starting Tuesday so I really don't have to take one to a shop anyways. Who know's maybe I'll fix all of them in the 2 weeks I have lol

Fix the Jeep

I do love my Jeep...

fix whichever one is cheapest to get going and drive it till you have money for the others. or get a scooter

Hard to say. I have $100 to spend to get the Mustang up and running... Shouldn't have ANY to spend on the Jeep.. But that's what I thought when I replaced the rad lol

LOL at the scooter... L O L!

You know, all you have to do is fix it, sit down, and drive it once... and all your worries will fade away... 'til you break something

Yeah think I might go grab the timing cover and slap some paint on it, and maybe swap the stuff off the passenger head and get that rollin. DON'T want to pull the dipstick out of the block.. That thing is in there

Alright fellas got the 4500k 55w hid headlights and fogs ordered because I don't have any bulbs... Now onto the other thing I need.. Head studs/bolts. I'm not getting ARP right now, as they are almost $300 and I don't want to spend that much just yet. I found these on Summit tho.. Question is will they work with stock heads? Or am I stuck spending the $100 on Fel-Pro's? I was unsuccessful on my Google search on it..

[KillNThrill24]

Lol well I just need to make sure they'll fit, and not be just for TF heads

 

[belber095]

get upgraded heads too man! can't hurt

 

[KillNThrill24]

Where am I finding the money for that haha?

 

[belber095]

should have thought of that before tearing the engine down ;p

 

[KillNThrill24]

Pschhhh didn't have too much in terms of a choice. It was either tear it down or use that thing from Napa and use their special long spark plug... Wasn't feelin that route lol
