A Quick Announcement of self-congratulations

Hey,

As some of you may remember I was helping my dad fix our CL with the theoretical intention of maybe, possibly, buying it from him.

I just got the go ahead to buy it and am currently preparing myself to bid farewell to all my money in the next few years...

anyways, just though I'd let you all know.

No problem.

When I joined I posted a quick little bio about me and (what is now) my car.
I'm sixteen and my dad is a rebuilder, he's been fixing cars for about thirty-two years now.

He bought an '03 CL-S 6MT a while before I joined and I was helping him fix it for learning purposes, with the intention to buy it from him eventually, I didn't think it would ever happen, but apparently my dad does trust me with it.

anyways. We've done it up with a gradient (blue grey to black, vertical) paint job, chrome rims (which I'm going to replace with RJs if I get a chance), tinting, lowering, etc. That's what he was asking about.

Your sig. is embedded in quotes. If you edit it you probably have [Quote] around it. Seems odd but I guess to each his own.

why wouldnt your dad just let you keep the car? If it was a junker you bought and fixed up together, you have just as much right on the car as he does....?
