For sure, man. I've already been approached about selling a set of RS alloys. A guy wanted to buy mine since I'd redone the 16" Accent wheels. Could probably get $200.00 for those alone. That said, I think we're going to keep the car and my son and I will work away on it. We have 5 years, lol, until he gets his license. I figure that's enough time. Haha. We'll work on it and drive it intermittently. Like my father, I'll probably teach him how to drive a manual in a remote location before he's legal driving age. At least that's the current plan. Things can change, of course.

That's awesome! Gotta love the father-son bonding. I need to start looking for a car for my son soon (he'll be 16 next year). I would love to find a fixer upper and do the same.

Yes, well we shall see how it goes. He's very much into cars (in video games) and most are Bugattis, McLarens etc. He loves the turbo Yaris and is always pressuring me (pun, not intended) to go into boost and race other cars on the highway. Haha. If he engages - and he's expressed interest - it should be fun.
