I have a '92 Explorer XLT (4x4 4.0 6 cylinder) that I've decided to get rid of. I've had it for about a year now but it needs a new head gasket and exhaust. Considering what I just paid for it not that long ago I don't feel like sinking much money into it. Besides for the gasket and exhaust broblems it's still in good shape though (all options and features work fine) and the engine only has about 114k miles. Literally just before the gasket went I replaced the plugs and wires as well as a bunch of other maintanance items. My question, for anyone on here with advice, is about how much is it worth in it's condition and what's the best way to go about getting the most money for it. Should I try selling it for parts, sell it to a private party, something else? For somebody with mechanical ability and the tools to fix it, it wouldn't cost too much finacially to repair. I bought it last May. It's just been sitting in my driveway since X-mas when the gasket went so I just want to get rid of it without eatting too much of a loss. Thanks a lot for any help anyone has.
