I never finished this car, So I sold it to a close friend for 400 dollars, I actually finished rebuilding the motor, and I had problems with it cause I put the timing chain on wrong like an idiot but it was my first time ever fucking with a car so, I sold the whole car for about 500, ended up buying another car off one of my friends who got a ticket

Bought the red one..

Unfortunately I ended up crashing it into a ditch cause of under steer, so I picked up another 240 within the couple of hours after crashing..

which is this one

(fire damage was before I bought the car, previous owner)
