Yeah, its 'only; around $200 in parts, except that I have the 'only' cost for thermostat and water pump, hoses, EFHG and associated parts, Belts and tensioners, and some other stuff that needs to be addressed. Old cars are a pain.. LOL!

Exhaust smoke? Traces when you get on it hard (I can't see it when driving, but can when following it). And the back of the car tends to get dirty very fast..
