Ever miss the stang' when it's at the shop?

[mustanggt3685]

I'm missing mine (been 3 days, probably won't be done until Tuesday). I did get the PI cams in it, but on both sides I had a bit of timing chain slip, so I played it safe and brought it to the shop to have a "stang expert" (he owns 3 of them) time it out right. Plus, the tow was free, as my father and uncle know the owner of the shop. This is the first time I've had to "give in" and bring it to the shop. Better safe than sorry though, eh?

I'm going to be down for 4 - 6 weeks while VT rebuilds my lonblock.. Let you know after the first week..

my car was at the shop for over a month for the motor swap awaiting a DFX and PMAS meter which held up everything for over 2 weeks.. I missed it but now that I got it back it was all worth it.. still gotta go back for the fuel system completion when the new assembly comes in but that won't take more than a day and then we can finally dyno this beast and see whats she's got.....

My car has been sitting in the shop for 4 MONTHS and counting, because my engine is getting rebuilt. The rebuilder origanally said it would be 1 month but he kept pushing it back i'm so pissed. I've been missing my car so much i've been buying parts for it, it sounds crazy, but i've bought an air ride suspension, 10.5" cobra r rims with 315, and exhaust cutouts. my car should be done soon hopfully and have 675 hp, it better have 650hp for being in the shop for over 4 months.

Wow, 4 months...I wouldn't have any hair left due to the fact that I would've pulled it all out by now. Hope your ride gets done soon.

I'm going on about a month now without my car, but it's mostly my fault of not having the correct parts for my s/c set-up.

Thankfully with this car, i've never had it in the shop. I've had down time due to issues with installing parts, but the car was always sitting in my driveway.

I haven't seen or driven my car since November 2006

y is that?

 

[Rookie71]

Yes. I miss it even though I only drive it once every one to two weeks. Dropping it off this afternoon to get a www.glennsperformance.com 950hp fuel system installed, which means I won't see the car again to sometime next week at the earliest.

I will look longingly at the puddle of oil in the garage where she is normally parked.....
