time to say bye (April Fool's lulz)

I watched with tears in my eyes Friday afternoon as my Sport went rolling down my driveway on a trailer behind it's new owner.

Movin' on, I guess. Thanks folks for everything through the years. :bowdown:

I also just sold my car. As my car pulled off with the new owner I was like  my car sounds good!! The new owner is in Atlanta. The bird made it down there no problem.

Getting rid of your car doesn't mean you have to leave the forum. Because, after all, you'll buy another one eventually. You can't let it go, none of us can, lol.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

He wouldn't answer my text.....  last month when I saw the car in person it was in pieces with no engine or tranny and at the rate he works.....  well the engine is most likely still on the stand.  :(

Believe me, I know what it's like to get overwhelmed with a project and feel like it's become a struggle more than a good thing. I had so many parts all over the place I didn't see how I would ever get the car together. I just had to step away for a while and gather my thoughts, and realize, that every little piece I install, every fastener I tighten is progress. Sometimes progress is very slow, but it is progress. Patience is often times an art to be mastered. I have mastered that art. I have been accused of changing my mind a lot, but I'm patient about getting what I need. Ask Kitz how long it took me to decide on, and find a simple pair of valve covers. Looking back on the Sport, the time I have invested, the things I've done with it, I'm glad it happened the way it did. I got (and get) a lot of satisfaction building that old car, and I'm glad I can say I built it with my own two hands with a lot of moral support and tech support from my friends here, and it's something I can be really proud of.
