Hey,
Thanks for all the compliments on the car guys; it really is fast and fun. Unfortunately, I've gotten so I'm ALWAYS having to goto Wes' garage for like 4-5 hours a day to work on stuff, and it's nonstop...there is always something else that needs wrenching.

I'd love to keep it and have another car, but I really cannot afford two cars at this point. I have to put my head down into my books this year and graduate with a good GPA and get it over with. Yeah, the Probe is fast, but it's taken a TON of work to get it there, and this car wasn't set to have more than 200 hp, let alone 350.

I think it's just time for a fresh start. I've unbolted every bolt on this car twice, and snapped off about half of them..lol. I guess I just want something that'll start up on the first crank everytime, and that will not need constant attention the way this car does. I could dynotune it and whatnot, but it'll always need more.


...don't worry, I'll be going back to Bristol again before I get rid of it. I'll race everyone that wants to race ...JEFF...haha. I just want RWD, the V8 growl of a stang(like nothing else), and something a little more mature I guess.

Thanks guys

Nick

see...now THAT'S what I'M talkin' about There ain't nothin' out there like a mustang. Ya either luv it or hate it From what I hear you've gotta kick'n Probe, but there's only so much you can do..unfortunately there are very few who get to keep all their project cars and appreciate them for their whole lives...I say out with the old and in with the mmmmmustang - but then again I may be biased

Good Luck either way

Don't buy a mustang if that's what you want. Buy a Honda

Mustangs are cool, don't love em or hate em What I really want is a Vette! I just have this NEED to put a car sideways...in 2nd gear

Hope you're happy with whatever you decide to do. It's a sweet car and always sad to see one like that go.

You might as well just get a GT.
