Goodbye...
To the Mustang that is. My 89 GT has been sold. For a measly $3200. Once
again, I have sold my current Mustang to my wife's little brother. I don't drive it anymore, damn near everything on it is brand new. Figure someone needs to get some use out of it. All he has is a motorcycle and drives a pretty good distance from college to home on a fairly often basis. So now he has something for rainy days. I gave him the huge family discount, as the price he is paying is a good chunk below what I was asking. Aww shucks, I didn't need all that spare cash anyways. I can now pay off a loan that has been slowly depleting my blood supply over the last month or so. The only thing that kills me is that the last one I sold him no longer runs and is sitting in the backyard at the in-laws house. In other news, I was getting rid of the CV (work car) and looking for an Impala. Well God spoke, or rather turned my head a week ago and MADE me see a 2001 ex-SSV Expedition. So I bought it that day. I have managed to keep it a Ford Family driveway. However, due to the current vehicle selection in my driveway I am definitely doing my part to end the environment. I also have the 05 Excursion. I keep expecting the Sierra Club to paint ball my house. Hope all is well with the old-timers in here...and everyone else. Don Manning |

I've gotten where I rarely drive my Mustang, but I must say that when I do it is exciting. -- "The moon being made of green cheese, being necessary to the feeding of a hungry bunch," - Quaestor |

Whenever you feel like a ride, just call. I have the '71 running now.

That really isn't fair. The wife would love to have a convertible. She would most likely drive it instead of the Excursion! Until it was time to load kids up. Have to think on this one for a bit.

Funny. I was on vacation last week and was thinking about all of the work
I've done on my '72 mach1(and what I have left). I was realizing that in 7 years, my oldest will start college and I'll probably have to sell it to get money together for tuition. The thought almost made me cry. I hope there's an alternative, or maybe he might get a scholarship (the kid's only received one "B" up through 5th grade, the rest "A's"). Hope he keeps it up. (Must get it from his Mom). Dave "Don Manning" > wrote in message .com... > To the Mustang that is. My 89 GT has been sold. For a measly $3200.
