I have a Toyota T100 1994 3.0 Liter, 4x4. I was running on low oil, then the engine started to make a knocking sound and was driven for about 20 minutes. then when i got home i realized i had almost no oil left. We put in new oil, but the sound just gets worse the more I drive it. Is there any way we can save this car? If not. do you think someone would be willing to buy it for a good price? thank you

If you have oil in it and it's still making noise, it's too late. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

would anyone still buy the truck do you think? For parts or maybe to fix it up?

Sure, it still has value. Depending on the condition, it may be worth putting a new motor in it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

You need to get it analyzed first to find out how serious itr is but you're usually looking at a new motor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
