Default help...

I just got into an accident with the curb... it just seems my car likes hitting curbs.. don't ask why i hit it..heh neways i hit kinda straight on. The car runs fine right now. But when i did hit it red fluid came down a little but then stopped and didn't do it nemore. i think it was the transmission fluid. neways the radiator seems to be pushed back or my frame pushed up. The only thing im really worried about is whenever i put it into reverse. the whole front end of my car goes crazy and shakes violently until i press on the gas pedal. it gets worst wheneveri slow down in reverse. but when i switch it to drive it stops shaking and works fine. I just wanna know if this car is worth keeping. Cause i was planning to do an engine swap and tranny swap as well.. neways my car is an automatic and is a 94 accord ... i'll appreciate it if u can help!

vibrations and reverse - I seem to remember something about the tranny mount or one of the engine mounts. do a search.

I vote for the swap too.

yes, but swap soon, because, what happened to me: if you leave that rear motor mount in to long, eventualy, (well im auto as of yet) you can screw up your front mount to... so make it quick!
