Sounds wonderful. Congrats on your first car. And as a dad with a nine-year-old slowly picking up an interest in cars and modding, I certainly think it's way-cool that you have a relationship like the one you seem to have with yours... enjoy. I look forward to what you do to mod it.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
