Yeah, she kinda pissed me off last night. From the start, she asked me to find out what she needs to buy. I gave her those brakes. Now questioning my stuff. Trying to cool down before we chat tonight. Not sure if I will be fixing up this car or not. Crap has to change. See ya & thanks again.

OK, I hope it works out. Could you just buy the car? Then it would be yours and you could do what you want to it?

That's not even an option, I don't think. Her dad bought it new & it was her 1st car. Really not even worth asking.
1 thing good out of this, I can save up to buy my own. I can just then buy all new stuff. Since it was bought new, I was going try & have fixed parts that are original. With my own, I can just buy new stuff.

Well, I hope you get a good Mustang. Find one that's already had everything done to it. It's cheaper! Believe me, I know!

Yeah, best to wait and find a really good one. And go see it in person, photos don't always tell the truth.
Here's a link to a guy in Dallas who sells Mustang for a not too bad price. You might want to take it to Mid Cities Mustang to have them check it out before you buy. It you don't like what he has righ now then you can wait a few weeks untill you see something you do like!

I'd love to buy one already fixed up & running, can't quite afford that though. I am disabled & can't work. There for, can't really save up that kind of $. Cool to look @ though!!

The car will remain like this for a while. Lisa's $ is needed elsewhere. I brought it to my house because of that. Here she is in my carport w/mine.

Yeah, the pass door will not close. I think the latch is seized? I have been just tying it to the steering wheel. I forgot to ask what Bobby thinks is wrong today. Got that to go ask about tomorrow. Does this make any sense to y'all before I ask?
I'm pretty sure it was closed when I 1st saw it. I think I opened it up? Thanks!!

Dad & I got the wiring ready to be hooked up. Now I'm just waiting for the gables.
Found a latch from Year 1 for like $75. Found it @ Dallas Mustang for $55. Hoping to get ordered pretty quick.

I order from CJ Pony Parts and Mustangs Unlimited. Usually depends on price since CJ offers free shipping now. However MU gets me my parts usually in 1 day.

National Parts Depot is also good. But you have to call them on the phone to order. Kind of a odd thing in these days of the Internet. Here's the link to their online catalog. Good selection of stuff, it's worth getting the catalog at least.
