Niiiiiice!!! But you could at least afford to drink something better than Budweiser:smirk:.
BTW, I did the same thing today with my mom's CV and my S-10.

Thanks guys.
Teach the kid something. Hand him a wax pad some wax and a towel to wipe it off and see what happens. If he is into it he can make some nice money on the side once he gets older.

Thanks guys.
I am so glad that this car can actually be preserved now being that I have another car to drive. Really really really puts me at ease that the car should last longer now. Plus it is fun going from a dinky 94 Escort to a beefy 87 Crown Vic and feeling the difference all around..handling, acceleration, top speed, comfort etc..the list goes on and on.~David~

heh... and people ask me why in the world I sold that 93 escort. umm... COMFORT. it's nowhere near as comfy as these boats. also, it's nowhere near as quick (except around corners - that 93 escort would corner a 90 degree turn doing 30mph with almost no tire squeal... Pirelli P4 on each wheel too - 32psi each.)

going from the saturn to the mustang feels crazy. the clutch in the mustang makes my left leg bigger i swear, then you can barely feel the clutch in the saturn...its weird, i mean its normal, but weird. ya know?
im still on the fence, i like the way the cable clutch feels (you can actually feel the clutch) then i like the hydraulic deal on the saturn. but theres no 'feel'
then i get into my truck and need to get into the 'truck' driving mindset again. lmao.1988 MGM GS - Preferred Equipment Package 172A; InstaClear

Congrats on POTM!!! Though not for nothing, I wish they had waited a month for the warmer weather. Then you would have the Bullitts on that car. That would be the proverbial icing on teh cake.
