These cars are getting older and guys are picking them up and beating them without any sort of maintenance.

Most of the time they're for sale due to issues the seller doesn't want to fix.

I don’t see how that happens unless there was something sersiously wrong with that before you bought it.

It’s not common to throw a rod. Something had to be wrong with it prior
