i was going to talk him down hopefully getting the car for 2000 or less then ether rebuilding or replacing the engine.

so i guess what im asking is it worth the time and with my money that i would have left over...can i rebuild it with about 4-5000 bucks?

just looking for some thoughts...

and i also just ran into this...

not much to comment on the tiburon- they are pretty decent cars, but under powered for what they are


but for the celi- you should be able to pick up a motor for around 1K or less and just drop that in and you'll be good

if anything, I'd worry about the quality of that paint job as well

Alright thanks. any one got an idea on how much a shop charges to drop engine in?
