Oh fine.
My sister had an old BMW, it was green and it was awesome.
I’m not in the market to buy, unless I can, like I said, pay in cheetos and baby diapers. Oo! Or in baby smiles! That would be perfect!

Dearest SadieLovesOldCars,

Unfortunately, the car won’t be in street-legal status when we’re done with it. If it were, and, even if you put the passenger and rear seats back in, putting Norah in her car seat whilst playing gymnast around the roll cage wouldn’t be fun. Sorry.

However, Craigslist is a pretty good place for finding deals if you know you’re ready to buy. If you all are in the market, I recommend it.

I just got a brilliant idea. You fix it and race it, and then I will buy it from you when it you are done.
However, I will probably have to pay you in cheetos and baby diapers. Hope that’s ok with you.

We hope it will be lots of fun! Of course, finishing in the top 5 would make it really fun.

That is great! What I fun, cheap way to have some fun. Maybe this is something I need to think about for the future. Only I don’t know a whole lot of car guys down here…

Best of luck!
