Well congrats on the $25.00 car. How did that happen? It's worth more than that as scrap. Anyway, rent from U-Haul if you have a truck-or rent the truck from them I'm sure. Blown head gasket but why? 4 or 6 cylinder?

well my finances are not that good. hence need trailer. but a co worker might let me burrow his tomorrow so ill pick it up after the 7yr olds game. my gfs sister got it and it smoke or overheated on her on the way down from north wa, so its been sitten there and she got a new car. so I said if I move it can I get ti for 25.00 , it got no title. and 15 bucks fills her car up. so yeah im going to try to fix it, ill be on lv from the army and itll give me something to do. plus it beats putting 400.00 in gas in a 2500 every month. cha ching. so I figure plead system. change gasket or gaskets if I can get a kit on line cheap and then top fluids off put a quarter of gas in and see what happens.

If you can come up with the scratch to do it right that little car might run a long time for you. Being a 4 cyl, it will be much cheaper and easier to fix. I highly recommend having a machine shop go over the head, check for cracks, re-surface, check and replace valves and seats as needed, etc. It will be money well spent. The next most important issue will be making sure the cooling system is repaired and reliable or you will end up with another blown head gasket soon.

Good luck with it!
