just keep cleaning it as best you can. as long as it runs, you got a bargain.

Removing all that shit probably increased MPG by 2 and made it half a second faster to 60.

>>17548287
Get carpet shampoo and a shop vac for fabric. Off brand magic erasers for all other surfaces.

i guess the new gaskets and hoses helped too
>>
>>17548334
help pulling dents?
if you stop by i'll give you the beer i found in the back
>>
>>17548334
those dents don't look too bad.

try a "pick a part" place for all those missing interior panels

I can only guess at how well he maintained the engine. If I were you, I'd check the oil and look at the state of the coolant and the brake fluid.

I bet it needs an oil change.
>>
Is it a manuel or an autotragic, OP?
>>
>>17548398
Autotragic based on the upper right of the cupholder photo

Normally I'd be disappointed but for 1$, I don't blame him
>>
>>17548387
he did a good job on the oil and air filter. all the regular maintenance shit was good. everything else was trash. the shocks were shot, you could literally feel the road, the hoses and gaskets were stone, and the cylinders would miss until it cycled up.
truly it was "full stock"

>>17548398
it is auto but i got a Manuel out of an 05 i found at the heap
>>
>>17548223
The most disgusting thing on this car is the automatic transmission.

>>
>>17548513
i figure if i increase air intake it'll make up for it
help plz
>>
>>17548425
Is the engine light on? Misfires should've set some sort of code.
>>
Did you get the title from your uncle on the car? Make sure you get that from him before his ex finds out.
>>
>>17548537
no misfires since oil stopped seeping in through the gaskets

>>17548548
taken care of
>>
good luck m8 hope you can clean it up nice. Just don't get carried away and spend more on it than you could buy a nice one for.

Pour a pot of boiling water on the dent and try pulling it with a toilet plunger or strong suction cup, you might be surprised.

Found the poorfag who thinks debt is inherently bad and saves a pile of money instead of investing in the market.

>>17548287
Pull the seats out and take em to the carwash. Rent a carpet cleaner and steam clean the interior. Pull out any trim you can and again use car wash. Etc

Good way to dry shit out is roll the windows down a few inches, turn on the heat and a/c at the same time, full blast, and just let it run for like five hours. Let the seats drip dry for a while first, obviously.
