Your probably looking at $2000 or better. A good down payment on a better car.How much to get this car back on road? (estimated cost)?
More than the car is worth.

Body repair is extremely expensive, especially if the rust is all the way eaten into the metal, for the rust and paint and body damage work, figure at least $1000 to do it right.

Foreign cars will almost always cost a lot more to repair mechanically, due to the price of the parts.

These are ROUGH estimates.

Water pump, anywhere from $250 to $800, maybe more depending on make and model.

Timing belt, usually between $200 to $500, depending on make and model.

Oil change, maybe $25.

Battery- if needs a new one, maybe $50-$75.

just removing the scratches, dents, doing metal work, and repainting the car would be at the very least $2000 at say MAACO but they do a $!t job.



Battery recharge is free at Wal-mart, a new battery is $45-$100



an oil change is around $20-30



water pump varies by car but if its european be ready to pay out the ***



and the oil leak is also going to be pricey



the timing belt will be $10-100



tires range from $10-200 really depends on the quality
