    With my upcoming divorce and trying to figure out how to buy the ex's share of the house from her, I knew I was gonna have to make some sacrifices. A couple came to look at my Mustang Thursday night and the deal was struck. Me and my boys went for one last spin in the "pumpkin" Friday night around 9:00 with the top down and the temps nice and warm for a change. I came really close to calling them and telling them "no" after taking that drive. Let's just say I haven't really been this attached to a vehicle before. Sorta felt like I was selling my arm or my leg....it was a part of me.

    Anyway, I figured I would post a few pics from Saturday morning before they picked it up.

    That is one beautiful car....I'm sorry to hear it had to go :notnice: You will always have the memories. Take one of the nice pics and frame it so you won't forget it. If you're like me though, I would never need a picture to remind me of mine. You'll probably be back in one before you know it. :)

    Sorry to hear about your troubles. That is a great looking car. Honestly I have never been a big fan of the mach 1 wheels but the chrome and black ones look perfect with your color car! Hopefully you will get to own another stang sometime down the line once your life settles down some.

    WOW

    :eek: Sold?

    Man, that is a very unique and clean looking stang. I have never seen one like it.

    What did they give you for it?

    I hope you got some really good cash for that car.

    I'm really sorry to hear that. It looks like you took good care of her, which to me shows how much you love your car. I hope things get better for you.
