So, if you're not inclined to spend the time and money to correct all the "issues", I'd suggest that you sell the vehicle. I'm sure you can recover the amount that you currently have into it. From here on.........it's all downhill. None of us can sell the vehicle for the amount of the parts plus the purchase price. If you pay for labor.............you'll drown.

I have to agree with Brian, any investment in car of our vintages is only in our own enjoyment of them. We all know that we will never see most of the money we have invested in our cars back in our pockets, however we see it every time we take our cars our for a drive.
. . .Ive got nearly $14,000 invested in my SLC, enough said. . .
