Well I bought my 1995 Ford Contour from a friend for a killer deal it was $130 and I put 22 bucks into the strut assemblys also put 21.50 into window tinting (lota people like it) I have minimal options I have power mirrors no cruise no tilt I have rear defrost its a 2.0l dohc I4 with a automatic tranny this is what I will have to do in the next month or 2 PLEASE remeber I am a 17 year old still in school and work part time so its hard to do stuff like this but I can do it......... I need to replace the drive shaft the cv boot got riped and greese got all over.......seems like the tranny is acting up it happens when it gets heated up.........It shifts all over the placce causeing intense jolting.........so Reconditioned drive axle $60....... Used Trannsmission if i pull it myself $100........engine leaks oil very slowly........blower motor is shot........clunking noise coming from suspension when I hit bumps (i think its a loose bolt on the stabilizing bar tho again) it has 144k on it and is a salvage repair only real necissary problem that needs to be fixed is the trannsmission..........
