I need a car

Anyone know of or have a car for sale for 500 dollars? It has to be safe as my pregnant wife and my daughter will have to ride in it from time to time. Basically, I need it to go back and forth to work with.

Anyone? Anyone?

How safe could a $500 car be? You're looking at a 20 year old beater for that price. Do YOU feel safe to have your pregnant wife in one of those?

Not particularily, but, due to some circumstances beyond my control, I can no longer afford a new vehicle.

My employer forgot to tell me a little thing about my paycheck... Mainly, the fact that they hold 30 days of managements pay, then you start getting a check every 2 weeks.

It blows, and badly.

Unfortunately Jason, under the Alberta ESC Section 7(2), your employer is entitled to pay you in that fashion, since it states that a pay period must not be longer than 1 work month.

Are you ever wrong about anything?

I know, that's why it blows.

Have to get another vehicle as the civic is not really a car I should be parking downtown, and it won't make winters any better.

Yeah, that and phsychologist are a dangerous combination. Hey, don't you think he would look good in an old Jailhouse uniform, wearing dark glasses, a shiney Gold star on his chest, and a shotgun over his shoulder?

We could call him Officer Clem, and he could clean the mean streets of Lethbridge.

Just kidding, you know I respect you.

I might have to do that. Hmmm... Wonder what I could get for 5 bucks, and if it will be bigger than a bread box.

Well, found a nice little Honda Accord... 1986 with the flip up headlights, power sunroof (Which I'm thinking should go in my car... Rust on it, but other than that it is in really good shape. 750 bucks. My old boss had it sitting in his garage and wasn't sure if he wanted to sell it, but looks like I'll get it now.

Just wonder what it would cost to restore the darn thing.

Nah, I'll just buy it and leave it as it sits. If I do it up then I'll have to buy ANOTHER car.
