Does she run at all? She's be great in the derby.

No she doesn't run at all. Snapping the connecting rod was catastrophic.

Her name was Black Betty and she was a good car.

Off to recycling .... RIP 98 Park. She was a beauty.

Sorry Bruno mate I've just caught up with this thread & I'm sorry to read about 'Black Betty'.....

Way back in the late 80's I bagged myself a Renault 19 16v ('hot hatchback') as a company car & I (among other things) bent the con-rods hammering it through a blown fjord costing my then-employers over £3.5k in repairs....

Next thing you know my bosses replaced it with a diesel Vauxhall Cavalier ('old mans car') but I can't say I really blamed 'em.

A Lama?

Brunotheboxer · 12 April 2011, 10:54 PM

Not quite.

Something with a petro engine that doesn't need to be milked.

Mac-Apple · 13 April 2011, 04:18 AM

Sorry for your loss bud!!! She will get you 500 or so from a junkyard or 600 on Craigslist.

Brunotheboxer · 13 April 2011, 04:26 AM

Thanks pal.

Around these parts I'm only seeing about $400 from the salvage yard.

Mac-Apple · 13 April 2011, 05:20 AM

put it on craigslist for 750 ,and I am sure you will get 5 offers of 500 and 1 sensiblle person will offer 600. Heck you may even get quite a few trade offers :D:D
