Wow, your a lucky man. I sold mine to almost exactly that kid you describe, and I still have nightmares about it. I wasnt getting much interest though, and he showed up with cash in hand. And I practically gave it away, (considering what I had done to it)making it even worse. He drove overight from Indiana to Georgia with some of his buddies in moms car, and then it was gone.....I miss her, usually you get over these things, but just the way I had it set up was perfect for me and it was a lot of work. And the kid had the money from insurance from totaling his Trans am, I can only hope my baby doesnt end up the same way.

Amen to that! I lOVE the 05 body style. Something tells me a mustang will be in my future again, someday...
