i cant part it out because i have no where to store it or the parts. i cant swap because there is no point way to much money. i might just try and sell it on craigslist and go buy another. my father wont be happy i just gave him my sc and now i am going to take it back. sure he will be thrilled about that. i might just see about doing some rust removal and go from there. the lca's i dont care about i can get new its the subframe and engine mounts that i am more worried about.

So if I were to drive it till it falls apart I should do something to keep it as long as possible. Mechanic said to spray that shot they use on truck beds. I want to clean it up first then use some rustolium then spray that. I think it would give me the most life from the car. Of I don't clean it up first it will eat through faster. If I clean it use rust prohibitive and then cover it with the black stuff I should have it last for years.
Thoughts?

Ramps didn't think of that great idea thank you.
buying another SC that doesn't have rust is also a great idea but money is not exactly growing on trees for me. i would need to sell this one pray my dad doesn't need his car for the time it takes to buy another. i also don't have the title for another 2 weeks at least and i need to buy another quickly one without rust would require me to go well outside of NYC to make sure that doesn't happen. I also can really lose to much money on the deal because i wouldn't have enough for the next car.
I am in a tough spot.
maybe doing some cheap preventative maintenance would give me enough time to find a buyer and a good car to replace this one with. so unless you know some one who want a project saying buy another is easier said than done.
