well, im glad that we are all alive, especially my friends, because i dont know how i would live with myself if any of them didnt make it..

i am having a hard time deciding what to do, i could go out and buy another fox, or wait until im 19 and working full time, when i will have more than eanough money to afford a NEW mustang. or buy an old 67-68, and drop a big block in it.

all i know is that there will be another mustang in my future, i dont know when, but there will be.

dude I am trying to make the decision right now. I want a new gt and can afford one right now even though I'm in highschool but i run into the same problem I have right now. It won't be fast enough. Right now I am at the point where my car isn't as fun as it was because it no longer seems fast. I even grew tired of powerbrakeing the car. I can't bring myself to choose between a 99-02 gt with mods and nice rims or my pretty much stock 5.0.

If I do decide to keep my car which I am leaning towards now it will be a hell of a lot faster then when it went into storage=)

Take your time deciding what you want to do and don't rush into anything because you want another mustang.

You didn't answer my question of whether you got the engine and drieline out of it but what about a 4cyl lx and put all of the gt's parts in it that are salvageable?

I agree...if you look at it that way, EVERYTHING'S not as bad as death...but it doesn't make it HURT any less, you know? Not many people put their heart into ANYTHING anymore, and to see someone's work down the toilet, well I gotta say...that's pretty damn sad to me.

As stupid as this sounds, losing a car you've put time/money into is almost like losing a child. You develop a bond with it and when it's gone, you feel that break and loss....
