The second one I bought in Aug of 2000, it lasted until 2 years ago when it died with 127k miles on it, litterally it fell apart over a 2 week period, stuff just started to fall off like the fuel rail, and the gas tank, and an air bag, and the radiator, and a ton of other stuff. Some of that stuff while it wasnt even driving. I started it up one morning and the radiator fell off (like litterally it just dropped down and hit the ground, if I didnt go back in the house and notice it I would have been dragging my radiator). It finally got to a point where I looked at all the stuff that was wrong with it, got trade in estimates (around 500 for its condition with visible body damage) and decided it would make me more money by parting it out then selling the chassis for scrap.
