The car's not in too bad shape, but it's an auto tranny with 110k on it. Probably on borrowed time. We've been discussing getting a new car for some time, so this just forced our hand. Kind of a blessing in disguise, maybe. This is my only means of transportation, so I don't have something to fall back on if he were to go in the shop again.
Even with a used motor the cost of replacement would probably outweigh the benefits of it.
