Most of you know that I have a couple stangs for sale. I put them on the classifieds here on Thursday night and had a buyer within about ten minutes for the 91 GT.
Actually had someone offer me a 98 Cobra for the other two foxes, but I'm trying to make room for other projects and don't need another driver.
So anyways, dude drove like 4 hrs to get here, brought the family too. His kids got to play with my dog for a while. He looks like he already loves this car as much as I do, I think it's the color. I tried to list every problem the car had in the add so anybody interested would not be surprised when they saw it. One thing I forgot was the car not having a trunk latch. I had not been able to find it when I switched hatches a couple years ago. That hatch is from an early 80's stang and it's not the same as the 91 latch I had for the car. So I never really worried about it because I have the 79 Capri RS in the wharehouse at work and figured I could run up and grab the latch off it, throw it on this car and all would be fine. So I get back here with it this morning and find out that someone must have changed the hatch out on that car cuz it's a newer style latch. So I was bummed and I offered to take $200 off the price of $3500. Mike didn't feel comfortable with that and told me to keep $100 of it. So I sold it to him for $3400 with the Convo Pros on it (I was advertising $3500 firm with Pony's).
I was hoping if I could only find buyers for 2 of the 3 that the 91 GT would be the one nobody wanted but it left first and I miss it already (I'll miss them all!). I forgot ot ask his username, but he is a memeber here. I hope he sees this and responds. Hope he makes it home without any problems. Many of you know I bought that car to be an FFR donor and did not drive it much. This will be it's longest trip in years. I don't think he'll have a problem. I would have trailered it to him if I thought it wouldn't make it.
Anyways, sorry for the long pointless story. I think I like my car better than the stack of cash sitting here. Oh well, there's more cars downstairs! And I'll be getting my FFR on Tuesday, and if I can get rid of two more cars I will have room to bring in the 91 vert that I was asked to paint. Car is badazz! runs mid 9's on motor (no power adders).
I guess now I'll have to change my sig, again.
