Just got my GT back from the body shop

Fox Body · 12-11-2003, 04:36 PM

Well, of course, since it's my car, I can see about 2 diff things that don't look perfect, but close enough-- I'm satisfied. I think they did a great job. Back to normal. I just thought I'd let you guys know, since I did let you know when it got hit.

Laters.....

Oh yeah, and guess what rental car I was driving for the past 2 days...... A stinking Toyota Echo

. Can you imagine how it feels to drive around in a foreign, egg-shaped, oversized, luxury golf cart with close to zero cornering capabilities and no power for 2 days and then return to driving a real, well-crafted American-made, automobile? Aaah, the wonder. Felt so good.

Although, I must admit, the Echo was great on gas.

I hate driving any other car than my stang. I used to drive an import... uck... I have to admit filling the tank once every 2 weeks was nice... But it still was a poorly driving car. So... yes I can relate to driving a wierd misshappen car. lol I can also relate in how embaressing it is to be seen in one...lol. Of course with the stang... and my flooring it capabilities... I fill up once or more a week... lol.

Fox Body · 12-12-2003, 10:51 AM

Sorry, midniteblu.

Rick, it's just back to normal again, no dent.

Stang_Crazy · 12-12-2003, 02:26 PM

Looks great! I love that color combination!

RBatson · 12-13-2003, 03:59 PM

Looking good! Do you know how hard it is to find a nice fox body priced reasonable?

Fox Body · 12-13-2003, 09:29 PM

Thanks, guys.

It was a total blessing to have gotten this car, back in April of this year. And, it was the EXACT year and EXACT color and everything that I wanted or needed when I was looking for a Mustang to buy!

Crazy Horse GT · 12-14-2003, 12:35 AM

Fox Body · 12-14-2003, 03:34 AM
