Wink looking for a Beater car for trade of Brand new tires!

Im looking for a winter and work beater to get me there OK! I m not asking for it to be perfect but something that is a good runner! Im willing to trade off 4-8 Brand new Michelin, BFG, or Bridgestone tires in any size for a pretty good beater/work car!

Re: looking for a Beater car for trade of Brand new tires!

REF. The laser i emailed you about earlier, the transmission shop called and told me they cannot see that it is leaking. maybe it was just low from having set last fall. they have driven it and let it run on the rack, still no fluid loss.
it is ready to drive, should go anywhere, but as with any used car....you never know. There is nothing I am aware of that needs attention, and I would set out on a 5 or 6 hr. cruise with it. thanks deputyb
