it was nothing more than a clerical error within autotrader. i bought it from a massive dealership that owns several lots over the northwest and midwest. i'm sure that i got what i paid for

And I will totally take you up on the chirpy mod. My wife is originally from Ventura and has always wanted to go back, as its been since she was a squirt. so Ventura, LA & Karo are all on the list. If you're lucky, you can sit in the new car and make vroom vroom sounds and pass it through the gears. not a bad deal eh?

Just called the stealership. An e-mail was sent to the shipping company. The trucker was supposed to have called me already. He told them he would be in my area, weather pending, by today. Im a little worried. But he said he also had a 6 car drop off to make at a ford dealership, and a few to pickup along the way as well. So... could've been wishful thinking on the driver's part, but I still wish that I had heard from him.
I cant focus. I cant do anything right now. Theres so many things I need to do but none of it is going to get done until I see that truck! I bought the car outright... sucks Im out $13,771 and nothing to show for it!!
Once I get it, I'll start my own thread for my new car
Keep your fingers crossed with me!

ive never been interested in names before, I just ride them hard and put em up wet
this one has been a work in progress to find, and is probably my most prized car ive owned to date... even moreso than the 12 sec camaro... as those are a dime a dozen.
im up to hear suggestions for the name tho im willing to commit to her enough to give her a name

tell you what. im going to treat this one with meticulous care. no modifications without double and triple thinking it over. i want it to be clean, without a thought of tacky.
and obviously, i want it to be fast
schrick cams, headers... bring it on!

When I got my exhaust put in I lost low end. Then I installed headers which I don't feel good low end but great top end. After tune I felt a huge difference but again I lack low end. My car sucks off a dig....3k range is where it pulls hard (gained 33wtq in the 3k range
after tune).
