I don't disagree, but I drive a manual daily and no problems with it (hydraulic). This car is too much for me!

Posted a FS ad today. Clutch is great and very quiet.

Cleaned up a bit under the hood. Needs a deep cleaning which will be done before next weekends car show I've pre-registered for.

I didn't want to deal with the extra expense at the time. But as time goes on I don't see me enjoying this car. It's just not fun to drive like they used to be for me. It's a bummer, but if I can't enjoy it and it be comfortable, it doesn't make sense.

Very logical and makes perfect sense. Some things are just meant to be a happy memory. Often we try to relive the magic and it just doesn't seem the same. I know my 5 speed trans is a PITA at times and I have to wear certain shoes so my feet can fit next to each while pushing in the clutch while braking. These cars would suit a guy with size 10 shoes or smaller much better than my size 12 feet. There is no way I'm getting a "hands free" transmission in a Mustang.

Size 12 huh, that explains the bald tires and poor fuel mileage.

It's been a great couple of months relearning everything and the support from the group. The car left today so had my last ride with it this morning. I really was sad to see this one go as I put a lot of time in to bring it back. Just not easy to drive and will be looking at newer versions.

Well, congratulations, sort of.

You gonna hang around and help hapless guys like me?

 

[Nutty 5.o]

Thanks brother! Heck, you and most others here know way more than me! I'll still be around. This is a good group here.
