...I'm in a very interesting predicament here: I'm moving to Florida from Rhode Island in the 1st week of October and I have two 240s that I have to "Rid myself" of. I've previously posted about that '82 244 that has had that turbo replaced with a water-cooled one and only has 151ish miles on it. The seller has told me that the car is in great mechanical condition except the car needs a new AC compressor and needs to have the R-12 changed to R-134. Normally I wouldn't care about A/C but I'm moving to Florida and having AC would be nice. And even that is arbitrary because the car has a sunroof which REALLY helps circulating the hot air out of the car. BUT the car does have some surface rust around the rear wheel wells and rocker panels, and like I said, it's gold and the paint on the front fenders are faded. Now what do I do? A gold 1982 244 is as about as hideous as my manilla paper yellow 1984 244! I'm assuming that a good two tone black on top with gold on bottom paint job will cost me over $1000 right? I mean I would have to accrue that amount of money before I left here unless I get a crappy paint job which I don't want to do. I really need some advice here because this car situation is driving me crazy! Before you guys ask me why I'm getting rid of my other two 240s, this is the reasons:
'91 240 I'm getting rid of it because:
-It reminds me of my ex girlfriend and I'm a very sentimental person and I just can't bear to even look at it anymore.
-It's an automatic
'88 240
- It has CRANK windows and I'm not doing that in Florida especially when it has light tan seats and no AC or sunroof.
- It's moderately rusty...It has rust around the typical areas... BUT it has rust on the axle, control arm bushings, and that will be A LOT of body work.
WHAT in god's name do I DO?
