Oil in the radiator from most likely a head gasket

I bought it used 2 years prior for $2400 cash. I just needed a vehicle i could park on the city streets and didn't care a lick about. 40,000 miles later the twins arrived and I moved to the suburbs. Goodbye beater, hello sexy.

Seeing my last car and how I didn't care about it makes my girlfriend laugh that I carry cleaning wipes in my car (to clean off the bird droppings without having to give it a full wash).
