gee, rev, I dunno why you want to bust my chops like that?
I guess I was rude to you sometime before...
not unlikely...
I can be a total @$$hole sometimes...
The car sold for $3500, the price of the new parts. The guy is picking it up this weekend.
I doubt that I would have paid that much. I would have had to trailer the car from L.A. (about 500 miles). He!!, I never even saw the car. can't say I'm disappointed.
I have about 16 hours/day that is free, so I sriously doubt that a buildup would take me 16 years (barring machine shops losing my parts, etc.)...
HIRE someone to look at a car for me. you have to be joking! I don't pay anyone turn wrenches for me, why on earth would I want to hire someone to look at a few boxes of parts that I am fully capable of evaluating on my own? Especially an early stang! there isn't really that much to them, compared to today's fuel-injected cars.
I sure as hell didn't have an extra $3500 a year ago. I do now, but I think it would be better used to help on a down-payment on a house (with a garage!).
Once I have my garage, I'll go spend $1500 on a trashed 60's coupe and resto-mod the mo-fo!
