Alright....
As some of you might know, my car was was totaled out due to flood damage. Water got in the floor boards, but did not reach the computer or fuse panel. The motor is blown up. It has a rod knock. Now, the insurance company has given me the car back, and gave me a check for $6,600. It will start and run right now, it just has a horrible rod knock.
I can't make my mind up if I should just part the car out, and move on. Or if I should go ahead and build a motor for it and keep the car. In all honesty, I love the car to death. It's been my favorite car I have ever owned. The thought of selling it off just makes me depressed. But at the same time, I am scared that the car will turn into a big headache. It wont be a daily driver anymore if I put a motor in it btw.
I just want some opinions/guidance
