Lately my car just feels like junk. It feels like an old rough car. All the bushings need to be replaced in the front suspension, and I need new shocks and struts. The interior creaks and rattles, Im going to have to do a floor pan fix on it this summer the tailpipe constantly vibrates frame rail, and worst of all THE DOORS SAG. Also the car needs a repaint due to the wheel fallin off on me and the primer spots all over it from my "body modifications" I did. I have all these little things wrong with my car and I have NO money to put into the thing. I'm depressed in a way..........lol I want to do all this stuff to it but cant even afford to put gas in it!. Does anybody else have all these little things wrong with it? Sorry Im just venting, I just want my baby back.

- It's not tuned yet
- There's dust in the engine since it's been sitting in the garage for nearly 6 months.

You were just playing right... I don't think I can remember it all but I'll try:

Car won't start when hot
o2 sensors welded into exhaust
exhaust is homemade
radio harness is spliced
seats are broke and one has only 3 legs
someone cut interior in hatch for speakers
two words: OIL LEAK! ...rear main seal
Idle sticks when revved (linkage)
no air
no heat
no cruise
no power door lock
no mirrors moving
no interior light
no dash light
no fog lamps
1 word: BONDO!!!
different colored fender/fiberglass hood/cobra bumper/ground effect
crappy main color looks like child did it
subframes rusting


Fixed:
found a pen top plugging vacuum line
linkage was on valve cover
vacuum lines were screwed up
were bad -iac/tps/coil/distributor/control module/plugs
shock was stuck
springs were cut


Should I sell this thing and buy a nicer one?

All of my cosmetics. I need a new top, my interior is kind of crappy,and the paint has seen better days. The nose of my car looks like it was hit with buck shot from all the stone chips.

Mach 1 - the fact that I haven't driven it in a 1 1/2 years.

5.0 - a tear in my drivers seat.

The convertible frame squeaks sometimes.

Fuel smell after driving for a while (I think it is the injector o-rings)

The e-brake button rattles all the time untill you press it.

My convertible at the moment can't go up or down cause I can't figure out how to bleed a half dry system.

I need to get my new top installed, but not before I fix the damn motor bleed.



And the weather is getting nicer and nicer, I need to hurry up.
