Thanks for all the support and comments.
I have 30 days from Feb 28 2015 to get the car passed inspection and repaired or off the road.
The car will be tested against the list available here
http://www.th.gov.bc.ca/CVSE/vehicle...PDF/MV3199.pdf
Honestly I doubt 80% of the crap on the roads today would pass.
The following is where I think it will fail..
1)throw out bearing (horrible sound from the transmission at idle with clutch out, in is quiet)
2)rear brakes need replacement (I have new drums and shoes)
3)adjust parking brake
4)timing belt and water pump way overdue and risky (I have the parts)
5)third brake light bulb needs to be replaced (have the bulb)
6)remove kill switch
7)repair disabled DRL
8)replace windshield (many chips and a few cracks)
9)engine oil leak (either valve cover or egr at side of block)
10)rear struts mount are lose and knock (I got used springs and struts to lower, the top strut nuts are stripped and can not be adjusted)
11)headlights need adjustment
12)clutch leaks fluid below the pedal (minor leak)
The car is totally drivable and safe but needs work any used car i have ever bought has been in worse condition.
I have been unemployed for the last 10 years (due to depression/anxiety issues)
My wife has been unemployed for almost 1.5 years but is going to university to become a social worker.
Money is very tight and its hard to get motivated with my issues, the only hobby I have is my car.
I know its a sob story .. but its my story.
I appreciate the the comments.
