Question What do you think ?

hi everybody first time i'm posting a message from a year of reading messages, i bought my svx last year , and since i got a lot of problems . i bought it at 198000 km, since that i've change the crank pulley seal,1 cam cover seal ,rebuilt the transmission(i've let one guy try it....he was going backward and he put it to drive without stopping the car"i think he hates me", changed the coil plates and coils spring(i've let a girl drive it and she ran into a walkway at 30km\h"was partying" ,conclusion:a car can't be driven by somebody else than yourself, got my car stolen and found it with ****ed up front left wing"they stole it at the garage when it was for the transmission and they got stuck so he kicked my wing",changed the antenna , installed radio new speaker\subwoofer, blew up one speaker and the radio"short circuit due to the crime",bought a steering column at junkyard"hard to find but i did it", brand new elecrical main window oppener, new relay for windows....now i need the suede dash that goes under the steering and the small one at the left of it...anyway just letting you know i've spent a lot of money on that car and i'm trying to make it a project but damn its hard.

i'm now at 211000 km, and i'm suspecting a head gasket job, i ain't got coolant in engine oil,even if i'm not missing oil that much in the engine i'm having another fluid in the coolant reserve bucket (its a dark brown\black color having some deposits in it."not in the rad(its green there)".

i had some leaking in my coolant system , fixed it up. happened 2 times that engine temperature got up to near red , never got to it "had stopped the engine before it.

after doing the leaking job i've noticed the problem with the coolant reserve.
i've cleened up the bucket and put it back there with new coolant,it did it again about 1 week after. some think its the H.G. some other don't understand anything about it , they just find this weird because they told that if it was H.G i would have coolant in my engine with white smoke and i dont !. i've notice that the transmission gage has some small bubles in it but i dont think that it the problem, because it has its own coolant bypass."between rad and a\c rad"
anyway i'm letting some pictures "notice the picture of the bucket take a good look "its dark but you can see a little of it,the picture down-left"

i'm kinda tired of spending money on it, at least i bought it only 2000$ from my grand-mother...

btw: thats a 92 ls-l burgundy 2nd edition

let me know what you think, thanks

I'm a little rusty with my english i'm sorry if you had problem reading this.
