Here's the car:
As you can see, it's pretty bad ass!

Home Sale, Final Thoughts
After 6 years of living and working in the house, it was finished. It was also time to move on.
I'll post the final pics here that I used in the real estate for sale ad.
I learned a ton throughout this process. There were definitely highs and lows mentally, financially, and in several other areas!
The end result with the house is that I was super happy with the results.
Go back to the move in day post, and compare!

Lower Level Living Room Remodel
There was a second living room in the basement. It was in really bad shape with old carpet, bad paneling, a drop ceiling that was extremely old, an outdated looking fire place, old door, a rotted window, and more.
Here's the pics from move in day:
The octagon window was the one that was crumbling.

Living Room Remodel
The living room was one of those rooms that was somewhat awesome, and somewhat a nightmare. The floors were the great part, new hardwood! Bonus. The walls were in bad shape with cheap repairs, and 2 layers of paneling on the south wall. The windows were in bad shape, old and wooden; rotted through in spots. The south wall also had no windows, and there was no ceiling light; so it was cavey dark.
Here's some move in shots:
This window was the main offender, I had the contractor replace it.
