Hey guys, the shirts are in! I will bring them to the next auto-x in Palm Bay. If you need them sooner and want to pick them up you can catch me at work in the afternoons at BCC Cocoa campus, building 16 room 113.

If you don't want them, I'll take them. I just need the rears.

It wasn't making the sound a little while ago when I went out. Maybe it's self greasing.

Sure! They are just taking up space in the garage

Eric, the fronts are yours and Baglock you've got the rear springs. You guys just let me know, how you want me to get them to you......If there is no rush, I'll bring them to next AutoX, I probably won't be running, but I'll stop by to spectate. If either of you need them sooner, let me know.

Hey guys, Had a oil leak on the stang i had checked out. Turned out to be a bad rear main seal(700$) and while they had the tranny off the motor i droped in a KING COBRA clutch. I'm going to have to relearn to drive. This clutch is amazing. Its a rock, but its quick to catch.

So a great start to 2003, a $1000 repair bill. o well at least I got something upgraded in the process.

See everyone later, might come down to the JAN autoX I've got a track day JAn 25-26 and need some seat time before then. If i dont make that on, I"ll see everyone in FEB.

sucks about the leak, david. But at least you did get something new put in. I'm wanting one of those sometime, too. I guess it must be pretty stiff, eh?

Damn! that sounds awful high for a rear main seal. How much was the labor rate? I would think I could do a rear main seal in about 5 hours or so. Figure another $200 tops for a clutch and your around $500 @ $60/hr plus incidentals and the seal.

Maybe I should open my own Mustang shop eh?

Anyone seen the new issue of Motortrend with the 05' Mustang concept on the cover? Ack, it looks bad.

No rush for me. I appreciate it Kevin.

Sucks to hear about the main leak David, but like you said, you got the upgrade out of it. I may want to hop in your hoopty next time your down so I can compare the clutch to mine.

That pic has been bounced all around the forums. I for one believe its a concept vehicle. But who knows? A few years ago, I would have figured the new T-bird to be a concept only too.

I don't like it much either. I didn't like the 99+ style when they first came out either, but the design really grew on me.



I like this better...

Concept, but I am starting to like it the more i see it. I guess if I want it to stand out some, I'll grab some body kits.
