My 2003 Honda Accord which I just purchased in July for $2500 (half of which I haven’t paid off yet) just died. Big Time. Head gasket blew and anti-freeze ran right through my engine. Replacement of engine, parts and labor were quoted at $2600.
Needless to say I have no money and no credit.
I do have a job (an hour away from my house) and I do have some jewelery – a pearl necklace worth about $800 resale and of course a car with no engine! (Worth $500 in scrap??)
I can afford to pay maybe $200 a month for a car.
Anyone have a used car that they would be willing to “rent” to me, “sell” me or finance to me until I get on my feet? I have no other way to make it into work or get my kids from the middle of nowhere into cheder in the nearest town.
Any ideas would be helpful!
Thanks
