I only gave the guy $235 (Cdn) for it four years ago, so I sure got my money's worth. Now, after years of doing nearly no maintenance (yes, I am a bad person) she is finally giving up the ghost.

Problems:
1. cv joints barely hanging on
2. brake cylinder shot
3. big leak in exhaust manifold
4. head gasket leak of some sort (oil in anti-freeze)
5. rough idle and starts - carb problems?
6. fuel gauge doesn't work - low fuel light does
7. rear wiper dead
8. pas. side tail light dome busted
9. driver door hinges shot
10. grindy downshift from 4th-3rd
11. rust here and there

Anyway, I just bought a new one, exactly the same except blue. I'll be stealing a few minor things off of the the old white one over the next month or so, and could offer parts before I take it to the junker if anyone is interested. I am located in Calgary for shipping considerations.
