A few weeks ago, I bought a 2001 Oldsmobile Alero for $1 from a friend who just wanted the non-running junker out of her driveway. My plan was to destroy the car in an upcoming video series, but those plans have now changed; I’ve decided to trade the N-Body sedan for a ruined 2003 Kia Rio.
I have been having trouble sleeping at night ever since I got my $1 Oldsmobile Alero’s Twin-Cam 2.4-liter inline-four purring like a kitten. Sure, none of the car’s gauges work, and the transmission cooler still leaks like a sieve, but the powertrain and body are solid, the interior is in great shape, and the suspension makes this old GM mid-size sedan glide down the road like a magic carpet.
As I said in my other article, ever since I took that trip to the junkyard to replace the $1 Olds’ faulty ignition parts, the car has officially been the nicest car in David Tracy’s Automobile Shelter For Misfit Machines™.
And it’s for that reason that I cannot bear to destroy it in our top-secret new video series. Instead, I will trade the Alero to my neighbor/landlord, who recently rammed into the back of an SUV with his 2003 Kia Rio.
At first, my plan was to help my neighbor fix his car by replacing some non-structural sheetmetal, as he told me his mechanic—who did not open the hood, for fear that it may not close again—had ordered a fender, grille, hood and headlight, all in black primer for about $1,000.
