i havent done any mods or anything of that sort. i've just spent the year 
fixing whatever made my car break down. off my head i can remember replacing 
my radiator, my fan, my rear main seal. o2 sensors, fuel pump, timing belt, 
serpentine belt and fuel injectors. theres probably a couple more that i 
havent listed but i have receipts for almost everything. The stuff that i 
dont have receipts for is stuff that was done at a highschool autobody shop 
because thats where my godson's grandfather teaches and he did alot of the 
work. the rest is all stuff that was done at my many list of mechanics or 
parts that were purchased and a friend had done the work. i'm just trying to 
get an idea of what im up against should i try and sell my car. anyone have 
any ideas on what i should or possibly COULD do? thanks :)
