I don't want to speak for vinceguidry but when I was a teen my first car was a Mazda RX-4 with a blown tip seal. My job (with Dad's guidance) was to swap the blown motor for a fresh one and if I could get the car running it would be mine. I remember fondly both the car and the time I spent wrenching on it with my Dad.
