Ok so a couple of months ago we bought a 1992 Cadillac El dorado 4.9 V8 what what I was told was a harmonic balancer knock. Well after a while of saving cash up I personally seeing as my parents said they will have it fixed later bought the part and took the car to pepboys (down the friggin street) and was gonna have them change it. They told me that its a rod knock and needs rebuild/new engine :( So I need your help someone who will buy it of me for the same price i bought it which is $1500 The body, Paint, Interior ARE PERFECT! car is absolutely perfect exept for the engine. So I need you help because i think thats worth $1500 so if you know anyone who will buy it from me please do tell.
The car belonged to a grandma all its life.
The rear seats hadn't been sat in until me the other day. EVER. its an amazing ride please help.
Pics will come soon.


Sorry for the typos

Are you really going to trust the mechanics at Pepboys to diagnose rod knock? You may want to get a second opinion from a credible repair shop. I've seen E36s that were diagnosed for having rod knock. The customer was ready to pay a few thousand for a factory rebuilt motor. In actuality, it was just a loose spark plug. General repair shops cannot know everything about every car. That is why there are specialist for each brand.

Post it on Craigslist, I'm sure there's some Brotha's out there that will pick it up in a heartbeat, then throw some 24"s on it and cruise the thing the way it is. Fo Shizzle!

Its on bfc since the poster is 14 and seems to have an e24. This is the LOGICAL place to post an add for a FWD caddy that never sold well when new. :rolleyes

Good luck with the sale though. I too suggest CraigsList for a quick sale at the price you want.

God that thing is hideous

But...but...it's got dat CANDY PAINT, MAYNE!

My car's inside peanut butta outside jelly!
Flickin' twenty-sixes drankin' drankin' wit my celly!
We takin' real orders, talkin' code on that telly
We choppin' up that dope like a butcher in a deli
You know that purple kush leave yo clothes all smelly
But if you slangin' pound then ya pockets should be swelly
I'm ballin' till I'm fallin' just like the movie Belly
I'm always stayin' strapped for you ni**az that be petty
Tote a nine, nine, nine on the grind, grind, grind
I shine, shine, shine jewelry blind, blind, blind
The time, time, time yes it's prime, prime, prime
I'm takin' no retracts cause it's mine, mine, mine
