Hey guys!
I've been following this forum for quite some time now but never really posted anything. Mostly due to the fact that
I'm a complete noob with photo editing and pc stuff in general. But after looking up some things I'm finally ready for my post!
Btw if I do any mistakes or you have some good criticism for me I'd appreciate it you told me. That way I'll make sure it doesn't happen again!



So I picked up this beater. It's a 1986 Ford Sierra with over 350k miles on it. As you quite clearly can see it has some rust on it and a hanging bumper. After all it's not a new car and on top of that the guy that I bought it from used it as his daily for many years. He said i'd could have it for 200 bucks so I went for it not knowing what a pain it would be...



After I got it to the shop and did a further inspection on the car I discoved that the block had a big crack in it, making the engine pretty much worthless to me. I could repair it or buy a new block but since I'm on a tight budget that isn't an option for me.



While bummed out about the news about the engine I went ahead and started inspecting the suspension and undercarriage. I found out that the suspension components were busted and needed replacing also that there were large amounts of rust in the undercarriage making the car even more worthless than it already was. At that point I realized my plan of repairing the car and selling it wouldn't go hand and hand with my budget. So now i'm sitting here with my Shitierra not knowing what to do with it. I could scrap it but it didn't feel right to do so just yet.


Hope you enjoyed this. I will back with more once I figure out how you liked it :) Thanks for reading!
