I have a 94 Olds cutlass Ciera. 2.2L 4 cyl auto. Ran great til head gasket blew. Head gasket cost $15 from Advance. Needs other dumb cheap stuff that broke. It is still reg and insured. Sell it for what its worth in scrap.

The only reason the truck is on there is because its a good running truck with 40k original. I figure someones gotta need it for parts before I turn it into a tuna can.
