Other Car:90' Eagle Talon

[mattc240]

Guys...should I get my Talon fixed? A mechanic said that I had 2 "warped" or "floated" valves in it...Is that hard to fix or something...I mean I like the car...but would I make more money off of it by parting it out...(Few mods done to it) I mean I got New:Water Pump, Axles, Rotors, Brakes, Alternator, Silvania Headlights, K&N Air Filter, Timing Belt, Brand new performance tires (16')(Dunno what brand right off)(Less than 100 miles on them), Thermostat, Fuel Filter, And on the inside I totally redone the interior black...and some of the areas i put carbon fiber vinyl down..(Looks alright), And last... the car is black with silver at the bottom (with more than average dings and dangs) It's a 1990 Talon TSI Turbo...It's fast So what's your guys imput on it....Sell it as it is, Get it fixed then sell, Or part it out? All the money goes to my 240 :help

you can sell it to me. .

[Altiman94]

i would sell it outright, someone out there will biy it. Those usually go quick.

[240Knightrider]

how much you want for it.

[spec-u-later]

It depends on the price of repairs. You may be able to find a used head and replace it yourself, unless it's difficult. I dunno.

I'm not for sure...if anyone wants it on here i'd be more than happy to sell it to one of you guys...i just REALLY need the money...if you guys can start making offers then highest one can get it if it suits me..Lol plus if anyone wanted it...they would prolly have to come get it or talk to me about taking it somewhere for em..let me know something peoples

[mattc240]

its a DSM get used to it. it just a little headwork. wait till you break a shift fork, thats fun. DSM's make mechanics out of normal people.

1 dollar

[mattc240]

Haha Funny...No...this is serious.. I really need to get rid of this car as bad as i want to I love this car...but the 240 is more important...as all of you would agree

[240Knightrider]

dude I was trying to be serious this is a forum not ebay. tell us how much you want for it.

[mattc240]

Um with all the stuff done to it..I'd prolly take somewhere around $1000...Being serious...It did have an exhaust system on it. I actually might go start it here in a few...it would be good for it.

Yes reman'd heads are about 350

I have a talon as well, with the same problem.

[mattc240]

I say frick it...I need money for the 240

[XtremeHKS]

how about sending me your block? I'll buy that off of you..

[mattc240]

I Dunno

[batty]

my friend had the same problems with his plus other crap. I had to replace the transmission and clutch on mine. If i had to do it over i would have just drove it into a tree

[240Knightrider]

I wish I hadnt spent money on trying to fix mine and ending up finding out it wont work. and having to buy another one or I would buy your car.
