[Old Professer]

I would have kept the 1990, which was only burning about 1/2 qt of oil every 3000 miles, and still got 32 MPG, but it needed new tires, springs, shocks, struts, brakes, clutch, timing belt, and all new front end parts... Couldn't justify that much to keep a great car on the road.

Tires: $275.00
Clutch: $300.00
Strut/spring/shock assys: $350.00
Brakes: $325.00
All four tie-rod ends: $200.00
Timing belt and water pump: $295.00
Grand total:$1695.00

Actually, the prices that I got was closer to $4200. Tires, clutch, brakes, and timing belt were pretty close... However, the struts, springs, shocks, and the front end work were quoted WAY higher...
