my mechanic told me tie rods and front struts for a sticker...$600
while i was still thinking about it, driving home yesterday, transmission appears to have **** the bed, in a manner of speaking...car won't move, and when the clutch is let out, all thats heard is a bumpity grinding, which is progressively faster in each higher gear. this says to me that it's likely time to go.
motor's fine, body's decent, man, am i going to miss those heated seats.
mitigating this whole thing is mom acquiring a buick by attrition (old lady friend who doesn't drive any more), and thus passing on her 95 honda to me.
so, all this to say, anyone want anything from the 80Q? in freeport, maine

hm not to mention, roughly $100 for complete tie rods with ends from autohausaz, and if ya go with familycar.com you can replace whole suspension for? less then $300 least for my 88-90 if ya dont replace mounts n such can do it for? $200, and the grindy noise, mine did that too, the clutch's throwout bearing exploded, thats easy and cheap, $20 bucks, and if your skilled at removing transmission, 2 hours, if your not, 8-48 hours lol

I'll be in Portland for thanksgiving, and I could use a few parts for my '92 80Q. If you're going to part it I'd be interested in taking a few things off your hands.
