Why don't you just listen to your mom and fix the celica first?

My cousin found a 94 or 95 MR2T for 6K. Flew out to the east coast and drove 22 hours back home alone.
I drove 20 hours to and from to get my mint, old man driver 99GT with 50,000 for 8K. My dad went with me. |

if you really want the car you would go the distance to get the car and since its a 4 hour drive why not just take the bus.

First you need to find 3 people and develop meaningful relationships with them. This means spending lots of time with them, helping them out when they need a friend or someone to talk to, and just plain being there for them. After about a year of doing that, you should have a strong enough bond so that they feel they need to repay you for all the great things you have done for them. Then start telling them a sob story about how badly you need to buy a car. Just drop it into casual conversation a few times. After doing that for about a month, flat out ask one of them to go with you. If they say no, you will still have 2 more people you could ask. You only need 1 out of 3 to say yes, so your odds are pretty good. The only downside to this plan is that you have to wait about a year before asking them for such a huge commitment.
Hope this helps. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
