Ok, so I was just offered another teaching job to go back to Thailand. idea is to take it and be on the outlook for an international school and make even better money. I plan on selling my 2005 Accord but I might have to sell the stang too because there may be no place to store it.
But she is in a bit rough condition cosmetically, her paint is kinda , peppered in the front and 2 scrapes of decent size on each side near the scoops. She needs a new battery, new valve gaskets and has a rough idle that I can't figure out. Not sure if she will pass PA inspection due to having no EGR as well and has been out of inspection for like 1 year plus.
The good is that she has minor mods, LT's back and only 59,000 miles on her for being a 2002.
My nephew offered 5,500 cash for her as is.
The other option is to replace the battery and gasket and figure out the leak and try to pass inspection/emissions if she fails, replace the EGR and then clean her up as much as I can and sell her.
The final choice is to do all the above and respray if it costs $1500 or less and try to get 8-9k for her, but I would only be taking in 6500-7000 profit.
What would you guys do?
I would be sad to see her go, but if I return in a few years I will pick up a used 2011 5.0
