Help us help you. List at the very least a few necessary qualifications to your search to narrow the list down. For some people, a 10,000$ car is “cheap” for others you need to delete a few zero’s. A few things to consider. - Price range. - Importance of body condition - Body style - truck, car, SUV, Wagon - Importance of drivetrain setup, amount of doors. - Lack of necessary engine work, or a quick easy fixer upper? ---

* * * I have a 92 eagle talon tsi awd with lsd. It has 156,000 miles on it. Had an oil leak that was just fixed. It was coming from the turbo return line which is now replaced and no longer leaking. The body is in ok condition for its age. No rust, it was a southern car. Clear coat is cracking in spots and there is a small dent in the rear bumper. Interior is tan leather, the drivers seat is pretty rough. Looking to let it go for $1,000. E-mail me at [FSalvioli@nycap.rr.com](mailto:FSalvioli@nycap.rr.com) for more info or pics or pm me. ---

A friend of mine has a 1996 Ford Explorer for sale. It’s a V6, 2 door, green, has a working 4wd in it, has a TON of miles on it but it runs strong. He’s only asking $700 for it. Don’t ask me for pics because I don’t have any. If you want his number, please pm me for it. ---
