what a thing to have to ask friends
The Bonnevill we bought not a month ago needs a brand new tranny, The car is at the dealership, & they want to charge us $2k for a rebuilt or a used tranny (when we will go through this same stuff just down the road) They will not take the car back, They will not reverse the sale.
sighs, so the car is currently in their shop. I called one of the best Tranny guys around & he asked me how much we could spend, It hurt to tell him that we can only do $800 to get the tranny rebuilt (of course if we can come up with more money we will pay more) He said get the tranny to him & he will do it for that. Of course when it comes down to getting the tranny in I made a couple calls & we got one guy who is willing to put the tranny in. OMG Just having to have to ask these guys to do this & them willing to do. Money is really tight right now, & with this going on Christmas is going to be tight. The kids know this & willing to help out with giving us money from their checking accounts (NOT MUCH HELP THERE since they have none to speak of). This all started because we wanted to help, family. Zhawks sister needed a car to go see her son, So we gave up our regal for them & bought this car. Man this is really hard. I already told my husband not to get me anything for christmas, but he went out & allowed me to buy a couple cake pans so I can make lasana this weekend

OK you guys, my 87 Iroc has not been running for 6yrs now. My husbands 95 has starting issues, My corvette needs a battery (we can NOT afford).
The 71 camaro is up for sale & has been since the end of summer & all we get is you are joking you want that much for that car, the best offer we got was 3k for it. The 72 skylark is parked inside the garage & the non running Camaro is sitting behind it So we would have to push that out of the way, Sorry but my 12yr old daughter & my 16yr old son & I cant really do that. My sons 57 pick up does not run & he has currently no interest getting it running. The regal was GIVEN to his sister to allow her to go see her son who has Asperger's Syndrome & who they got taken away from them. which is why we bought this car & WE HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR A FLIPPING MONTH so that leaves us with My truck (which has brake issues, the drivers side rear cal, is grabbing which we need a new one) & my husbands vette & we just had snow not amonth ago. Guess you guys are all rich enough you can afford to take your cars to shops & have any issues to get it fixed & you dont have to have friends to come in & help you, like this & you dont have to take Christmas presents or Money out of your kids hands to get vehicles fixed.

Lemon laws are usually for new cars. If this was a used car then the car is usually sold as is and the law doesnt pertain to them. They can hire a lawyer but that takes money. They could probably win in small claims court as I have seen before. But it takes money to do that. I dont think they are asking for anything. But since this is Christmas I do think she is seeking a small miracle. So she came to all of us.

Weird post.
Anyway, the solution is to take the 3k for the 71 Camaro, sell oh lets say, 5 or 6 other non running cars for a few hundred each, including the Bonneville. Now you have 7 or 8k to buy a nice used car that will keep running. If you're not willing to help yourself, I'm not sure why you expect sympathy from friends, let alone strangers. |

List the cars on Ebay or Craigslist. Someone will bite for a reasonable price for the cars even if they have minor issues, like the Corvette with no battery...
