Sorry to say my baby died this morning, it was not the sending unit i found out the hard way...i was driving and she shut off while i was driving, i restarted her and it was hard but she refired, but I think she threw a rod, because it starts but it a loud metal on metal thump in the motor, that is constant and when you touch the gas pedal it gets louder...I am sad to see her go, I really really loved her but I know it is time to move on, I am trying to sell her now(I guess for parts lol), and it is heartbreaking, but my ol girl had 198k miles on her and i just put 4 brand new tires tie rod tie rod ends battery and a bunch of things in her and it is time to move on....geez honestly my divorce was final yesterday and this morning my faithful V8 dies on me...lol karma is a *****

Sorry to hear that.
I have had good luck on Craigs List but I do make people call instead of fooling around with the texting and email games.
What are the high dollar Aurora items? On my Lincoln the headlights and that silly taillight neon are like gold. There is a market for used MarkVIII headlights on ebay (yes, the bulbs). What do people want off our cars?....next year if mine is running I might want an A/C compressor as mine holds pressure but does not blow not cold.

yeah i posted her on Craigslist...yeah it is crazy how people buy the old stuff..the high dollar stuff is like the coil packs, headlights,pretty much anything mechanical..but I just spent over 1k the past year on my Aurora and there comes a point where the money outweighs the pleasure of owning it, So I have it listed on CL as a whole car listing everything i did to it and what is wrong with it, i really hope i can sell her so i can use the money as a down payment on something else....i will miss her though, my rental car is a 2015 Dodge Dart SXT with the turbo and it seems so junky compared to my Aurora crap like the auto dimming rear view mirror makes you realize just what you had i mean a 13 year newer car is so cheaply made compared to the luxury i was used to....here is her obituary scranton.craigslist.org/cto/4740550677.html |
