OK, first let's clear this up - do you actually know something is wrong with the car or do you just suspect it? There's a big difference. Huge, actually. If you actually know it, you absolutely need to disclose it. If not, you don't need to disclose it unless you're directly asked about it - it's called salesmanship. Anyone that doesn't either have a mechanic do an inspection or isn't a mechanic themselves gets what they deserve when buying a used car.
You seem to be a little hung up on the people that are going to "flip" your car after they fix it up. I think you need to eliminate that worry. If you can't or won't do that yourself, they deserve to make the profit off of any investment in the car that they make.
There are all sorts of local bargain papers to advertise in, and a lot of them are car-specific or have large car sections. I would check a local convenience store or gas station the next time you're in one.
You also may want to do a little research to make sure that what you THINK the car is worth is what everyone else KNOWS its worth. There are several free websites that will let you do this quickly and easily if you have the basic information in front of you. You can google "blue book" and find one pretty much immediately.
Good luck!
