Well, my 92 hatch that I bought when I was 15 has finally quit on me. 5 years of faithful service, and of steady improvment, but I guess it had to go out to pasture sometime, huh?
The A4LD in it has finally died, with 173k on it, and the shop asked 1400-1900 for it to fix it. So instead I took 1500, and put it down on a new car. I have henceforth become a traitor, and I bought myself a new 2007 toyota Yaris, with a whole 22 miles on the odometer. I had to do it, the 6yr,100k bumper-to-bumper and free maintence was just too tempting for me.
Although I have yet to get rid of the stang, ( and trying not to as well ) I might sell it to a friend of mine for him to repair and use for a few years. I just got a scholarship to a university (u.t.p.b.) that's about 6 hours from where I live at, and I believe this would be best for me to do. He has agree'd that he would sell it back to me when I get back from school, but I'll be 25 by then, and I may have to let it go. Sorry to post up some bad news, but it does make me sick losin my first car, especially one that I worked so hard on, so I just request from other stangnet members to keep posting cool pics of thiers (glowstang!351w!), cuz i do enjoy seein the fox bodies goin wheels up, or lookin show room pristine.
take care guys, I'll be seein ya from time to time.
