Default i have given up on my ol gal

I have replaced part after part after part in the past 4 mos i have put almost $1800 into her and she runs but stalls out on me even while driving. i have it narrowed down, but i am going to go ahead and sell her i posted her this AM and i have had SEVERAL hits. I am only asking for $1500 and everyone i have talked to is trying to talk me down should i stay strong with that amount or go down to want i really wanted anyway and that was $1250? Any advise right now would be great.

I would stay firm because of the $1800 that you have in it.

Default i haven't budged

i have had 2 people come and look at her one guy was going to throw a 302 in it and didn't care how she ran but never called back after he looked at it. I looked around her body only one scratch and interior isn't too bad i think $1500 is good everyone keeps asking me about rust and i looked at her motor mounts and there is very little if any at all i thinkthat is good for a 17 yr old car

you should look into suing the mechanics shop if they made a mistake which in turn led to you selling it you may be entitled into some money. maybe even enough to go buy a new 2.3 to play with
