im currently searching for a cheap car that will last me until i get my credit score high enough to purchase a brand new one flat out. i have about 2500 dollars to work. so ive been looking in the local newspapers and craigslist. i found a decent car, but its being sold very cheap. cheaper than id assume a 2001 ford explorer should go for (its 1500). the owner said that it has a stripped head that can be fixed with a 15 dollar heli coil. i have alot of questions about the whole thing. first im wondering what a stripped head is. second what is a heli coil? third is it really that cheap to fix? fourth, (told you there were alot of questions lol) is a car with a stripped head drivable or will i need to tow it to a shop? and finally, will a stripped head cause other areas of the vehicle to malfunction? im really dumb when it comes to cars so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanx in advance!
