Default 1997 Cavalier computer issue

377KM on it.

went to start my car, it started, but was coughing and sputtering. It stalled a few times, then wouldn't start again. It rolls over but will not start.

Brought it to my mechanic, he said he can't even get a code from it, can't even communicate with the computer. I don't know a thing about cars, but he said the 'computer' may be pooched.

What computer would he mean? He said it wouldn't be worth fixing as the repair would be as costly as what the vehicle is worth.

Well, money wise, it's worth $500 maybe....but to me it's worth a million bucks.

Thoughts?

Should it be turned into a metal cube?
