I'm about to dump around 500 dollars in parts into fixing up my car when it isn't even worth 250 in the condition its in. I'm just a sentimental fool who wants to keep the shitbox my dad gave me as a first car running.

Welcome to the club, we've got jackets.
>>13906092
oh wow someone on /o/ that actually likes cars
If it's a one time thing to fix then it's probably worth it to fix. You'll increase the life of the car instead of taking a bet on buying another shitbox that may have more problems sown the line.

93 ford escort wagon. My dad bought it new when I was born and gave it to me when I got my licence.

Holy shit I need a classic car. Especially since cars that are 1975 and older are smog exempt here in California. Plus rust isn't a big issue here.
Thinking about getting a 240Z or 260Z in the future to race with. Turbo stock engine, blow it up, swap in an LS1, race some more.
