Hey Victoria - Looking for a real cheap car? This beautiful '85 Buick skyhawk could be everything you're looking for!

*fuel-injected 2.0L engine
*190,000K
*automatic trans
*2 door
*am/fm/cassette stereo(yeah!)
*custom wheels

I've had this car as my daily driver for almost 2 years and it's been really reliable. The only time it's been off the road was to have a new radiator installed. I moved downtown this summer and have found it's no longer convenient to own a car, so I would like to sell it before the insurance expires in a few weeks.

This car needs a new water pump installed right away (not an expensive job), and could probably use brakes in the near future, but other than that, it seems pretty fine. I'll take offers on $300. - Wed, 27 Oct 2004 9:51am

A water pump job should cost about 150$ tops.......however, I just recently got one installed ....it cost me 350$, reason being, it is a mazda, and i had to pay to get EVERYTHING out to get at the water pump. Buick, however, is an easy job. - Sat, 30 Oct 2004 11:09am

That said, your total investment for my car = $350. Sounds like a deal. - Tue, 2 Nov 2004 8:52pm

Depends on the location of the water pump really, on alot of north american (read shit) cars, they can be quite easily accessed, (of course on others, you'll have to remove the timing cover,chain, etc etc and spend weeks getting all the shit off and back on properly..don't do if your an amatuer!) you might have to remove the radiator, then the fan, then about 8-10 bolts...vola', water pumps can be as little as $50 with a $10 core charge, if your handy, it should only take you a few hours to do.....if your not....sianora to $3-400 bones..... - Wed, 3 Nov 2004 6:34pm
