Re: project 40th
Interesting update on this. I showed my dad the car tonight. He said he wants to buy the car from me and give it to my brother Jeffrey. He has been driving a little 2-dr Grand Am and just had a kid 3 months ago. 2 doors and a kid don't work. My brother is not a car guy, and won't care about the rust, or anything thats wrong with the interior. My dad says to skip the rust repair to keep the costs down. Looks like its gonna stay in the family. We'll see.

Nope, not that one. He's had it for years.
I sold that one I had for $450 unfixed.

Re: project 40th
I figured yer dad would have a soft spot for the car, especially since they have a 40th themselves no? Or was it your late mothers?
Either way, I'm sure it will be a good car for his young family
