P became dissatisfied with the car after engine trouble. P claimed the engine block was cracked. D refused to take the car back. After P turned 21, he tried to return the car. It was refused. P sued for rescission. The trial court determined that P was a minor when the contract was made and he was entitled to disaffirm that contract. The court ordered rescission. D appealed.
