great!!! just great . . . LOLOLOL j/k no I'm really excited to get my hands dirty. (insert something funny about long painted fingernails LOLOL) I'm glad that most of the members of the boards we've joined have been so cool about everything . . . and helpful!!! We've joined a couple of other sites too . . . ford/ falcon specific and others. Mostly when were still looking like the Nova one . . . mostly chatted on the Chevelle board though . . . they schooled me quite a bit about what to look for.
So my boy took the car to a mechanic friend of his (he's a mechanic for one of the local fire districts) and got a huge thumbs up on the purchase . . . which no kidding was my biggest worry (to date). I didn't want to buy a PoS. We looked at several rigs including Novas, Impalas, a real sweet wagon ( I can't remember what it was at this second), challengers, and camaros . . . anyway, he's given it a 7/ 10 . . . so my kid wants to see what his other friend that works on planes (and cars) thinks . .. but from the reaction from his first look was that he was pretty pleased, even though he saw it in the dark LOLOL. Thank god I've got christmas' covered for the next few years LOLOL
