RE: Help me everyone please
Have a friend or someone that knows what they're doing take a look at it for you. If you had the time, the work isn't that bad, but if you need it for a daily, have a daughter to drive around, and don't know what you're doing, I'd sell it fast.
Didn't you look at it or drive it before you bought it? Buy some Flowmaster 40's and have them welded in, that'll quiet it down some if it has straight pipes or 1-chamber mufflers on it now. I would imagine the heater core was bypassed for a reason....I bypassed mine b/c one of the heater tubes broke off. I would change it back before you have a passenger side floorboard full of coolant. The core is only 25 dollars, but a major pain in the *** to install.

Unload it! I got mine for $3600 with only minor wear/tear trouble. You'll be putting way more than 2k in to that nightmare box and you can't risk it when you're hauling your family around.
I did have to do a core in mine within the first 1000 miles though... Kinda goes with owning a Fox as far as I can tell.

Well, i'd say if you got a good deal on the car and knew how fix everything yourself, i'd say keep it. But the way it sounds, i'd hope you was making about a thousand or so selling it for 1600. Car has obviously not been maintained and its untelling what all has been rigged up on it. From the description, you'd be better off to strip the car completely and start over. A good idea would be to get rid of that headache before it starts. ( I wouldn't recommend selling it to a friend either)
