I bought a 1996 plymouth neon about a year ago and it had problems so i put 250 into new filters and new plugs and a whole bunch of other things under the hood. Well the tranny has gone on it. I only put 750 into the car total..500 for it and the 250 of parts. It will cost 1500 about to fix. I'm thinking just junk it but what is the best option to take? Will I even get anything for it? Can I trade it in for say a buy here pay here type thing (I have bad credit right now) even tho it won't run? The neon just stays in neutral when you shift into drive. It still goes in reverse and the engine sounds normal I just wanna do the smartest most profitable thing with the situation? maybe buy a replacement tranny I saw some on ebay motors around 200 but I don't know the labor of putting it in and taking the old tranny out? thanks everyone for your help
