I have an 87 camary that need a clutch and ball joint, possible battery too?? you can have if you want it. Motor is very strong and about over $2000 worth of repairs within the last year. Here is the story...a good friend of mine has has this car for a while...drove it everyday, then things started to go wrong with it so he brought it to his mechanic and has him do a big once over that cost him like 2100 or 2200 I'm not sure. Then like 3 mo.s after that the clutch went and he just gave the car away because he didn't want to deal with it anymore and bought a new car. I was going to use it as a commuter..like you plan to use it for basic commter transportation. But I deceided not to use it and went into more debt and by a 4x4 pickup. So now I got nuttin to do with it.

Also, if Kham isn't interested this offer goes out to anyone..

A.) Wrong FORUM

B.) Don't worry about it, the site is not that complicated nor slow enough to warrant discipline in posting catagories.

Looks like you got a car...

clutch and balljoint? over $2k? hmm..

little too much work for me. i got this old beat up 90 dodge caravan that has intermitten charging problem i can't figured out. i would have replaced the alternator but can't take it out because of the bracket. so i need an alternative, something i can drive asap, and hope i can fix the van when the weather is warm. i might as well donate it to the helping hands of america. looks like im going use car shopping this weekend.

No, Kham, he meant that the car had over 2K of work already done to it in the past. On the face of what he posted, a clutch and ball joint shouldn't run more than a couple hundred.

The Supra of that year was the same car as the Celeca but a hatch back wasn't it.. My shit box is an 86 celeca with 190,000 on the clocks and runs great. It looks like shit but who cares I just drive it back and forth to work
