Angry what should i do?

here's the situation and i'll try to keep it short with the major points in it.

bought a 92 LS~L that wasnt' in great shape ->actually worse than what i thought it would be.only paid 3500$ after taxes.
owned the car for about a year and a half now . july 13 2005. only started driving the car end of august of 2005. spent 25000$ fixing the car up (roughly say - half on labour and half on parts {though i'm sure there is more on parts}). have changed out seized and badly worn parts with new parts or used parts and in some cases used parts and then new parts or upgraded parts. have had final invoice amounts costing more than double or triple the estimates which has racked the credit card. financially this car and take up all the money that i can make and faster than i make it.
the car just blew a headgasket on me a couple days ago. assuming it's going to be another 3000$ at least.
without this "love of the svx" thing and being realistic. what would you do or what is your advice?
