All good input/advice from the other people here.
Just my 2c, what are your goals for the car? To mod it and learn about car maintenance? To learn how to drive this specific type of car (or manual)? Or maybe just because you simply love the car? All are valid reasons, but your pops set the budget pretty high for a first car and that to me seems like he wants you to get something newer, maintenance/trouble free, practical, and a car that can run a long while.
So I'd start from there, identify your goals for what a good first car is, identify what his goal is for an ideal car for his son, and then aim for a car that fits both criteria. If no such ideal car exist for both your criteria, then one of you will have to make compromises (probably you)
