Smile I got a do-over!!! (celebrate with me!)
thanks to someone not transferring the title to the del-sol I traded him last year, he wanted me to help him fix the title, and I made him an offer, I gave him my hatch for my old del-sol.

thus erasing the biggest mistake I've made in a long time, for once I actually came out even instead of taking steps back.

the main thing is now I know better, NEVER trade a car unless you are completely satisfied with the other and needing a backseat is NOT an excuse to do yourself a bad deal

I am so happy right now, it's still kind of hard for me to believe......

I went from this, (I kept my HX wheels too)


back to this,


my kid is going to be sooooo happy too, he misses "his racecar"


the only thing wrong is a little fron bumper cracking, but I wanted a stock front anyway so no loss at all.
