My mustang is back home

[SpectralSamurai]

I hate this computer it just axed my original post so I'm going to restate it in a very non verbose way. My car is back home. The problem is somewhere between the engine and the rear wheels. I lack the funds and interest to fix everything that needs to be fixed on it. There is an unidentified problem with the rear axle, the transmission is on its way out and the engine is losing even more power. I am missing some of the more important parts to fix the turbo engine (VAM, LA3, etc) and things just keep breaking or otherwise hindering my progress. Its a shame, the block is now Old Ford blue and looking pretty good; I was really starting to get into it but I just can't afford to finish it. So here is what it's coming to: It's going up for sale. I am unable to complete this project, and unless a T5, "new" rear axle, manifold bolts and a turbo rebuild kit magically appear at my doorstep, I'm selling it all. If you're interested send me an email, post here, whatever. Email address is [email protected]. It was fun while it lasted...

Taking time is all well and good...but its something I don't have. In the fall I'm moving to Georgia, it was originally going to be after I fixed my car. However, the money that it would take to get the thing running again with prices the way they are here would be better off, I think anyway, going to a different car. I need a working car with the guts to handle driving a couple hundred miles with a decent portion of my stuff in it. To do that I would have to do the engine swap within the next month, not to mention all the drivetrain issues.

If this car was something other than my daily driver and I had more funds available I wouldn't mind so much. But it is and I don't.
