wait wait wait, you got rid of the car for ANOTHER new 5.0? just to go back and try to snipe it back at an auction after you lost a ton of money of it to begin with?

you should try a less addicting drug, like meth or heroin

There is that....

I am thinking it'll go for $2700.00

Also my new addition 2011, is a V6 vert not a 5.0

I wouldn't have done the deal but when I saw that pop up online at the price of 14977 and got them to drop the 77 bucks I couldn't resist.

Yes it is an addiction, and Meth causes all kinds of bad **** to happen, buying Mustangs doesn't.

BTW, here is the new car



While the offset on the wheels is incorrect because they're for the SN95 I threw them on to get rid of the ugly 17's and help it look better.

I ordered a replacement set of rims today, now I gotta find tires.

Very very nice choices on the cars and their names Gary. I loved Silver Bullet II and hope that if you don't get him back he finds a good home. I wish I had your money; but since I don't, I must say I certainly approve of the way you spend it!

Danka...

Vertigo, my money can go as fast as it comes.I just happen to work in an in demand field where contractors make hourly rates between $50 and $125 an hour for the work we do. Been doing it for 3 years after a friend talked me into and I enjoy the flexibility as well as the toys I can get with it.

It helps I am not married and have NO children. I admit I went a little overboard on Silver Bullet II, but I took what was a POS car and turned it into a head turner.

Did the replacement pulleys do the job? The 99 has made a similar noise before.

They did the job.

the tension-er plus two idle pulleys will run ya about $60. Labor is less than 30 minutes if your time.

SB II was not at Auction, was on the list but not presented during the sale itself, so I am not sure if there was a private buyer or if they opted to pull it last minute.
