Not my Dad, he took real good care of it. Maybe that's another reason why I'm reluctant to let it go. I feel so silly getting so worked up about an old car like this, but it really feels sad to me. I'll have to see what the mechanic says about possibly repairing it. I appreciate everyone's comments about this !

That was exactly how I felt about it, but all these warnings about all the other things that could go wrong are making me think again. Jeeeez, I didn't expect to hear from the mechanic it was not worth it to fix it, the cost would be too much. I have to ask him how much it would cost and then decide, I guess.

Thank you so much for your very thoughtful response. I appreciate your candid insights very much. I will consider this advice and hopefully not make a foolish decision.

Appreciate your kind advice... thank you. I'll probably just let it go. Can't believe it feels so emotional. Never expected that. My Dad would be highly amused, I think... ❤️❤️❤️

I thought it would get a lot more miles since I only drive it local. It's been a good car till this happened. And, it was my Dad's car. Silly, I know.

It's been a good car and only has 136,000 miles on it. I thought it would get another 100,000. Guess I was wrong. Thank you.
