before you buy any crappy car, look at the battery, and the engine. if the battery is crusted over you can't fix the car. if the engine is dented you can't either-unless you want o spend a ton of money. also, make sre you get the title before you pay money. if all that is in order, go to a auto repair shop and ask for advice on what to buy to fix your car yourself (or just have them do it).
