WTB: winter beater

looking idealy for a small truck, but am open to anything really 500 or less

well if you open to anything here’s what i have:

1993 Ford Taurus
172,000 miles
Rusted up, small tranny leak (hose needs to be replaced)
Windshield has a crack in it.

The car is beat but starts and goes without a problem.
I’d like to get 250 for it but if interested i’m willing to go lower.I used it last year for a beater. I use it now for a multicar insurance reduction.

how bad is the crack? will it pass inspection? hows tires and all that other stuff

crack will not pass inspection, tires are alright, but getting newer ones would be better.

ill have to pass, bump

'92 saturn SL2. 136,XXX miles. Runs good, always starts. New water pump, battery, belt, brake line, pads, rotors, 3 new calipers, muffler, ball joints, alternator all withen the last year. Needs new back tires, fronts will still pass. Belt started slipping recently, I havent had time to look into it, could just be the tensioner pulley.
$400 frim.

belt as in like serpentine belt? im very interested

yes I replaced the serpentine belt when I did the water pump last year. It just started to squeel last week for 5-10 seconds when I first start the car in the morning. I just havent had time to take alook and figure out what it is. If you would like pics I will get some tonight for you. Also the radiator is only 3 years old. With a set of snows on the fronts it goes threw some good snow. The thermastat and fan/temp relay was replaced last year also so the heat is nice and hott. Inspection is good till end of december. The radio was taken out to put in my summer car. I do have a cd player for it that I will come with the car. Color of car is dark blue, power windows, power locks, automatic. Still gives me 28-31mpg. I usualy get 280-300 miles to a tank. Tank holds 12.8 gallons if I recal. I have two extra tires just sitting at the house, will throw in as well, they are iffy but will probably pass inspection.

Edit: also have a lifetime warrentee on the alternator so if it goes bad just let me know and we can get you a new one for free.

once i get my probe done im seling the buick. 115k miles, runs geat, new tires heater works awsome handles good in snow. gas new tires on it. exhast leaks. some rust/dents. $trefitty
