need advise
I have a 1991 240 sx with no other engine problems except a blown head gasket and the electric fan needs to be fixed. the sun roof is broke and therefore has some interior water damage (not bad). there is a big dent on drivers side due to an accident. now im wanting to sell itbut at the right price, and im not wanting to get screwed at the same time, any advise as too how much I should sell my car for she is my baby and I really do not want to let her go but I can not afford to fix her.

Re: need advise
from the perspective of a buyer, I wouldn't spend more than $1000 on it, just based off your description.

^^^You're being too nice, Adrian.
- Seller "says" it's just the headgasket, but how does the buyer really know?
- Big dent in the driver side... Where? Better not be in the hard to fix spots...
- It's a auto with a ratty interior.
Might be running for now, but not for long with that headgasket. Gotta do major engine work to get it roadworthy. It's basically just a rolling shell, IMO. I wouldn't pay more than $600 for a non-running car in that condition.
