About my Lesabre

Big story and an interesting one for this car......My dad bought this car for $300 hundred dolars....u belive it? And it came 100% original....some old woman had drivin it.....So my dad told me i could fix it up a while ago....And i put some chrome rims on...20 inch Akusa reapor! And later i decided to spend som money on the performance on this car.....i wanted to change the camshaft and some other stuff.....but then i saw that the engine wasnt very good.....So luckely i Found an 1967 Pontiac Gto engine....and i had to rebuilt the Entire motor.....from pistons,camshaft,new intake,carb,heads,valves,headers etc....I found a Kit over the internet whitch included a lot of that stuff.....So For now the engine Costs me Exacly 4500 Dolars....Plus the rims and some other details the car like it is now costs me 10,000 Grand......But i gotta tell you its worth it.....not much ppl have old cars these days that they spend money in.....but i simply love old cars and spent some money on it......

My dad bough it for 300 dolars...now i can sell it for 15,000 thousend grand but i dont wanna sell it.......

Hope you like my story.....THX for watching.....plz rate and comment
