2. The car talk guys say that by 100k or 150k the car is "spent"
I would advise against it.

I rebuilt the heads on my 1989 Chevy in 2000 when the head gasket blew. It had 130,000 miles on it at the time. I managed to get another 10,000 miles on it when the brake line rusted through. I took another look at the old rusty car and decided to donate it to charity and to "forget about it".

(by the car talk guys, I refer to the hosts of NPR's "Car Talk")
