Cost me $1,400
210,000 miles on it

Since I bought it back in May, I've had to replace the radiator, temp sensor, three taillight bulbs, a fuse, fix oil cooling lines, and replace the optispark. fuck optisparks.

In the future I need to replace the gaskets in my differential, and the valve gaskets. Car is kinda leaky but that's an old cop car for ya.

The car is currently not running, It stalled on me a few days ago, kinda like before I replaced the opti. I hope that fucking thing didn't fail on me already... currently trying to figure out why I am not getting any spark. Really hoping I dont have to pull the engine apart for the opti again.
