RE: Beat Stangs....
That's why I finally sold my last classic. I was holding on to a mint 100% original 80k orig miles 71 Cougar vert that I had for 18 years. (pic below) But it sat in the carport and never got driven. I finally decided to let it go, and was very happy that a collector bought it and it's now in Sweden of all places!
The Mustang is just a car, it's no more "special" than a CivicjustMUCH betterlooking!Nothing wrong with loving it and taken care of it and personalizing it, but dont' lose track - it's just transportation - they've made plenty and will make plenty more. [/align]

RE: Beat Stangs....
eh, good to see you have such a passion for a serious monitary investment you have made, as we all likely do here. But it is a car, and it is mean to be driven, not sit in a garage for its life. Taking care of it definetly shows respect and appreciation, and I am annoyed by people who dont care enough to maintain their car, but in the end, its theirs. I know how I feel about maintaining mine, and that is that.
However, this is not S197 tech, and should be in OT.
