Was the $3K spent for work entirely done by your mechanic, or was a substantial part DIY. The reason I ask is that your $3K will accomplish quite a bit more if you're DIY, meaning that the end result will be more satisfactory, and you'd be more willing to hang onto the car. OTOH, if you spent 3K on the mechanic, and there's still work to be done, then you start wondering how long this will all go on. I think that with older cars, it becomes hard to hang onto them if you're not DIY. I have a '91 9kt, and I certainly would have gotten rid of it if I had to pay a mechanic to do everything.
