Default It'* all over...

1SICKSLE died last Saturday unfortunately. I went to get onto the parkway, it was in 2nd, went to go into 3rd and a loud bang occurred. Transmission is entirely done, only park and 1st remain. I've purchased a 2000 Volvo S70 I5 5-Speed auto. Driving the Pontiac to the scrap yard this morning as it'* all over....

Oh no! That'* so sad to hear! You'd think you could get more if you sold it privately with a bad trans. I got my 97 Bonneville for $800 because the engine had a knock in it. Swapped my 95 engine in and I golden.

I've tried the past week but it'* not getting any bites (even lowered to $650) and I need to get it out of here...don't want to burden the landlord with the extra car on her driveway for any longer.

Died with 211k all original. I'm not complaining, though it does suck to see her have to go.

If you take the Pontiac logo off the hood and slap it on your Volvo, you can still stay here. LOL. Just kidding!

LOL as you can tell, I've had very little time to post anywhere, on any forum. Hopefully that'* going to change soon...

Still looks like a pretty nice ride, hopefully somebody will bite, a rebuilt transmission is not too costly, it would be a shame to see it scrapped, but you have to do what you have to do, may she RIP!
