awesome neighbor April 09, 2012, 12:05:31 AM My DD 88TC went tits up and I've been using my wife's car for about a month now for work, til i get it fixed. Well I have this neighbor, he's a retired b-52 pilot, and I work on his cars, while my wife cooks them dinner 3 times a week. He came up too me last week proposing that he loan me $5K to buy a new car with. I am like thx, but I dont help you out to expect anything back. He insists and we discuss what to buy as he is thinking something classic that will appreciate later. I tell him about fox bodied mustangs and we strike a deal. I found a sweet convert and dude brings over 5k in cash. I dont know what to say, except that it's the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me. Here is what i got.....man I looooove 5.0 convert mustangs as much as TC's. I've had 3 and this thing is sweeeeet. I drove over 300 miles to get it and drove it 300 miles home in the same day. Had a couple old dudes comment on it, but the best was some hot college spring break girls from Utah taking pics as we were going 90 mph across I-10! God Bless sweet ass neighbors and I will pass the kindness on fo shizzle. Quote Selected

awesome neighbor Reply #6 – April 10, 2012, 12:59:30 AM apparently all the trim was body color from the factory, but someone painted it black....not sure if i would like that much red. Aldo, he swapped in 2.73 gears which means i got 26mpg at 80, but i am gonna put 3.55's in it. If anyone knows where to fing a nice used GT body kit, lemme know! Quote Selected
