Car decision/suggestions??!

[Grip72]

Ok i'm debating selling my car and gettin ga newer vehicle

i have a 91 Accord Lx. the interior is perfect, nothing is wrong with it...but my car has alot of kms...over 300,000. it's a 5-speed and it got painted last year BUT the door seams/underhood never got painted...also there are 2 small spots starting to rust. SOO i was gonna sell my car and buy a truck. BUT gas is getting so DAMN expensive i don't really want to get a truck for that reason. SO i was thinking i could sell my car and buy a newer car worth about $10,000cdn. OR i could keep my car and make it my project car and put every dime into it. Body kit, maybe a h22a OR turbo, rims, exhaust, header...etc etc..the whole deal and make it pimp and eventually throw it on air etc. a REAL project car...anyways..wha tar eyour guys/gals' suggestions? im' so stuck on this i doi'nt knwo what to do
if i got a truck i was gonna get a 95-98 chev/gmc and lift it and put on 33-35" tires.....4x4 baby
