I have a car for sale on my front lawn.  Evidently someone has taken a dislike to the windshield. Looks like they took a baseball bat to it.

It's a 1990 Cavalier wagon with 205,000 miles on it. I'm asking $600.

Do I fix it, or reduce the priceto $450 and add "needs windshield" to the description?

Reduce it to $450 and put a video camera on your car for any future mishaps!

I vote for the 2nd. Or just offer to replace the winshield at the $600 price, but don't do it until someone wants it. BTW, will it leak?

I always wanted to know what a charity would do with a run down car with major problems.  Sell it? Wouldn't make sense to pump money into it to fix it up

One of our local charities, Step 13, takes beat up cars and has the ex-drug addicts & drunks learn a trade fixing them up for sale. And the bonus is that you get to take off, for charity, the value of the new, improved car.

Sounds like a win-win situation to me.

Well, I  would have said "vandals" but that is an insult to western European hordes everywhere.

As a person of Irish heritage, I take exception to the use of Hooligan.

I declare myself to be a victim of a hate crime.

You're looking at the glass as half empty.

Cut the top off with a saws-all.

Market it as a covertable and raise the price by another $600 dollars.
