it would be cool to make the Chevelle a driver- BUT in college funds are short anyways, You don't have time or cash to work on the Chevelle when you are supposed to study.
How 'bout a third option: split the money, buy a really ugly, cheap depenable beater driver and throw some money at the Chevelle and work on it when you are home from school on break.
the cool thing is you've GOT the car, that is the part that will be harder to come by when you are older. DON"T SELL IT!
Ask any of us how we know!
College is short term, STAY FOCUSED on
that- 4 years is nothing! you'll have plenty of time for cars later!
AGAIN Ask me how i know. I'm 37 graduating with my BA spring '08 It's allot harder when you've got house payments, job, etc etc. not to mention i'm paying way more money.
Road Trip: Go rent the movie "Extreme Days". That is the ulitmate road car. your friends will trash whatever road trip car you have, All go in a cheap car, drive it cross country, dump it and fly home to responsiblity and pursuit of College-
Good luck-Chris
Oh by the way I was hard headed at 17 i would have ignored all this and thown every dime at the Chevelle and dropped out of school- oops that is what I DID-
