My niece has a early model (1980 I think) Celebrity. It is very straight and overall a very good car. It has the 2.5 four cylinder engine. Long story short, she drove it with a small knock in it until it became a very big knock. Sounds like a rod is out, but won't know until we get it torn down. Was wondering if there was a later model engine that would bolt in without much trouble. The car has an automatic transmission if that makes a difference. Am thinking that would be cheaper for her if we could find an engine out of a salvage yard, but finding one that old might be as much trouble as what she already has. If the car wasn't so straight and rust free, I would say just junk it. Also, she has poured a lot of money into it already, so kind of needs to keep it.
