Default New Neon owner

Well, my name is Taura. I'm from Latrobe, PA and this is my first time here at the Dodge Forum. Just yesterday I bought myself a forest green 1995 Dodge Neon from my boyfriend's friend's neighbor for $75. It's got a few rust spots and I think the ignition switch is bad, but it's got a new head gasket and what not! I'm here looking for some answers on some questions that I have about my neon, and eventually I hope to get the Neon looking nice and running perfect, and it would be a real plus if I could get the windows back on track too!

Haha, that's what i'm thinking. The only thing that seems to be wrong with the car is that I'm going to have to replace the ignition. That little spring that snaps the key back and turns on the windshield wipers, turn signals, heat, and the radio and stuff doesn't work. You have to kick the key back yourself. That's okay. It's cheap to replace and I've got people in my family who can fix it. So it seems to be working out for me! Maybe this summer I'll get crazy and go for a new paint job!

Haha yes, good ole arny is from around here, as was Mr. Rogers! Latrobe's famous for quite a bit, including Rolling Rock beer and LeNatures flavored water. :-)

Yeah, I believe I got a great deal. The only thing it needed was a new ignition and it actually solved all of the questions I had about the car.
