My dads a car dealer so of course he wants to pay as least as possible he said $1800 but at the end of the day I think I got a good deal, and thanks everyone who backed me up, I will definitely be showing him this The drift thread will be coming soon just so you guys know

You underpaid for that car... That being said, be smart and get that car up to or as close to factory spec as possible... I wouldn't even drive it if you have something else to drive around at the moment.

Chuck the welded diff for a proper unit, do your fluids, compression check, all maintenance.

Have the frame examined for damage. Then please.... Please have the car painted.

Get the car to "Stage 0" or factory spec and then go from there. These cars are honestly bulletproof and worthy of keeping if maintained right.
