That's all I ever do. It sits under a car cover 90% of the time, and when I take it out, the cops glare at me, and the young kids act like idiots trying to race me, especially if I don't want to race. I have many things waiting to be put in the car, but like Kell, I've been losing interest in it for a while now... :(

:(
 

Kell, I was pleasantly surprised to see you post here. I dont get here much either lately. My car is a mess...I wish I could have it sit w/ a cover on it like Joe, but I'm not that lucky. ;) Hi Joe. :) Miss me? lol
I still love my car, but its hurtin now like it has never before. Ive now got 117,300K. The seats have holes in them. (seat covers now). The carpet is shot. (BLACK carpet will be next!) and my paint is just a mess. And the damage to my side skirts on both sides, specially since that hydroplane onto that median last month. just makes me sick. I know I can NEVER show at AUTORAMA again w/ it in its present state, although I would like to. . I have a drivers window STUCK in there now to replace my broken one. (off a '97 Cobra) but till we figure out if its a gear or the switch tomorrow, I've been driving w/ the top down w/ a crappy *** looking window up on my side. I hate it. It makes me clausterphobic having my drivers window stuck up!
My engine still looks bad ***, but I cant drive w/ my hood open, so....
just very depressing. And very little to get excited about at this point. And no money to fix what ails her.
I think Topless is at the worst now she's ever been. And Its not an easy thing to deal with. I'm still waiting for that money tree to sprout in my back yard.
I still get positive comments and thumbs up on the road. But, I know how bad shes hurting. And its tough. I feel like I have a sick child.

I'm extremely old school. I first found this site back in late '96. This site was huge back then. There weren't many mustang sites around. Mustangworks was way out ahead. Saleen had a good forum and corral was a distant 3rd. My my how have the tables turned. SAleen is no more, and corral is the king now.

I don't know if anyone here remembers me, but I do stick my nose back in here once in a blue moon to see what's up...

This was also my first message board that I participated in so it will always be special for me.....

I sold my car almost a year ago & will be back into the "Stang" world sometime in the future.....

Yup...I remember. I'm in the same boat...car's been on ice forever. They even erased my original username. Hehe.

Hey everyone, I'm still here every once in a while. I 've been really busy but I do poke my head in every so often. Maybe when I get threw with school, I'll have more time to get on here. By the way, I've since bought an 89 coupe with a saleen engine. I ran it in Reynolds, Ga 2 weeks ago. I didn't too bad, 13.40 on slicks. This car used to run 10's with a 250 shot. I think the cam is setup for nitrous but all of the nitrous stuff has been removed. It pulls all the way to 7200 rpms. Needless to say, it's always good to add another stang to the family. Good to see you guys again.

Later, James;)

You were actually mentioned on page six from Fox Body...
http://forums.mustangworks.com/showt...5&pagenumber=6

Too many reasons to list! :( Not sold yet though.. smog problems. :mad:

I knew none of you would approve. lol. I love the 88 but I think I love my NEW CAR more!!

I'm getting too old for that loud obnoxious sounding bumpy riding crap breaking all the time hot rod.. time to settle down with a reliable car :o

If Its Not Loud, Not Bumpy, and Not Unreliable....Its Not a Hot Rod.

Thats all fun and the usual in my book. ;) Been driving them for 10 years now.

I drove my baby for almost 10 years.. I've demoted myself to a non hot rod :p It's still a Mustang though cut me some slack lol!!!

I was just pickin there Sicy Stang. No hard feelings. If its Ford, its all good. :)

:D

What a weeny?
 

Damn, what a weeny. Everyone needs at least one hot rod, LOL.

Rev

I wonder what ever happened to R-Batson. Think he lived in Wilmington NC. So far, he's the only Mustang Works member I've met in person. Or at least that I remember of, forgive me if I've someone else and cant remember...My memory isnt what it used to be.;)

Rick
 

Rick is still around, and still in Wilmington, (where my dad lives)....He posts on RHC from time to time. I talked to him about 2 weeks ago. Hes doing fine. He just dont get on the boards like he used to, like alot of us. :)
TNT :cool:

rick- rbatson was supposed to be getting married, i been trying to call his sorry azz all night, well except when i passed out for a couple hour's lol. :D :D :D :eek:

:)
 

ya, when I talked to Rick, he filled me in on all that, but it was late, and we both had a buzz....and unfortunately, I dont remember what all he told me.... :rolleyes:
I hate it when that **** happens....
TNT :)
Im hitting the sheets...gotta get up at 5:30 to get my Broken up GT washed and go judge the Cobra Club show tomorrow. I wont show, just display, cuz shes hurting so bad...
