Background
My dad bought this car for about $1000 back in 06 and he never did major repairs on it, just sorta rode it into the ground. I always admired it so in 2018 i noticed it was still in the garage and offered to try and repair it. It's had a broken head gasket since about 2012 and was just sitting there. I'm slowly bring it back to life while still learning about cars.
