2001 Hyundai Accent 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 75000 miles
Hi,
My radiator and head gasket have kicked the bucket. My mechanic has offered to repair them for $1700, which is a price a little to high for me. The mechanic has offered me $400 to buy the car and he would repair it for his daughter. This leads me to believe that I am about to be ripped off. Luckily My brother-in-law is a mechanic and might be able to do the repairs himself, the question though is it best to sell it or repair it?
Thanks,
Justin Schwab

If you otherwise like the car, I would repair it.
