Locally here in Southern California, you can get a rebuilt tranny for your car with a one year warranty for $1,500, installed.

A head gasket will cost you arount $1,200 - $1,500.

So you're looking at $3,000 to get it back on the road?

Is it worth it to you? Only you can decide.

What can you buy for $3,000 to replace it?
