My mechanic said engine is still okay but it is the other stuff (especially the body) that is falling a part.. I've done oil changes etc since I got it from previous owner
What about your catalytic converter ?

Brakes lines badly rusted as well ?

No clue about the catalytic converter and brakes.

I drive annually - 30,000 km max but more realistically, 10,000 km

If I can get 3-4 years out of the car I am happy!

The car is also probably going to be kept stock...

why are you worried about the body and looking to buy a car in the middle of winter?

You alluded to the fact you have your own mechanic...not sure how familiar he is with it, but does he think the Camry is worth putting any more money into or not ?

SO I need mechanic either in YORK or Mississauga or someone that just knows what they are doing with cars...


Thanks
Rick is a great mechanic and works out of his house at 403/Erin Mills in Mississauga. I have been taking my vehicles to him for a few years now. He is honest and has great rates and does business with lots of folks on RFD. If you search here you will find other threads.

Maybe we can eventually call CBC market place and say that certain internet forum has been rigged and they get kick backs from shady businesses :razz:

You have to ask a question, why? What went wrong?

After threads and threads of revote against the favortism about a self proclamed expert, internet bully and thief...

This is what went wrong -> freedom of speech has been compromised, you have to think twice about writing any negative comment to warn fellow members even if it is truth... The opposite of a deal is a ripoff, what is wrong with telling your volks about potential ripoffs? To get warning about a potential ripoff is almost like a deal? So posting a deal is wrong?

You mentioned back in Post #19 that you already have you own mechanic ( " My mechanic said engine is still okay " ) - why not just get him to do any pre-purchase inspections you may want have done ?

Your ' location ' reads as Mississauga ...so I simply assumed you lived in the GTA...my mistake.

I can't fix it. It happened after the login issue here...

I think RFD thinks I am from Mississauga from my ISP info??
