Not sure if you guys remember me posting about my situation with my winter car i bought on ebay...Quick recap...bought a 1990 5spd toyota celica GT 2.2l 98k miles on ebay $4930 shiped from FL to CT...turned out to me a sorta lemon, mechanically speaking...Bad Headgasket, Clutch...Anyways i disputed the charge and back Feb 28th the CC company credited me on my card and went after him for the money..he had 45 days to come get the car, but he still owed me $1000 for the cash downpayment i made...so bottom line...i have the car for 1 and now its mine....
Well i ran into a friend of mines lil brother at a gas station...told him my situation..turns out he works on celicas and hondas all the time...So he tested my engine...i need a new head and gasket...and ...so i bought one of Ebay..320 shipped fully assembled with 12 month warranty and a new head gasket kit 88 dollars shipped..the clutch might not be as bad as i thought...but if so thats only another 130 bucks...he;s gonna do all the work for me for the super cheap at his garage
Its in great shape cosmeticaly with 17" wheels and RSL Villain Rims Gunmetal color...
Definitly a good ending to this story
