Default I just do not know what to do

About 6 months ago I purchased a 2004 GT premium convertible. I have added floor mats with mustang logo, chrome "Mustang GT" tag frame, polished headlight lenses and changed oil and filter. The car now has 65,000 miles. Car looks great inside and out, runs great gets good gas mileage and everything works as it should. My problem is I do not have anything to do now that I have a car that I do not have to work on. I traded a 1992 Corvette that I spent more time repairing than driving it. WHAT DO I DO WITH ALL MY SPARE TIME NOW? Guess I can put the top down and go for a drive.

If you're wondering how to fill your newly available time, here's what I did when I was faced with a similar situation:

I let my daughter drive it one day, a coolant line burst and she drove it until it seized. She said, "I heard something "funny" and green stuff went all over the windshield but I thought I hit a bug so I kept going."

And *POOF*, just like that, all that free time I was worried about disappeared and the next thing I know I was butt deep into a motor swap that turned into an upgrade to a DOHC. So not only did my daughter take care of my spare time problem, she also took care of my spare change problem that I didn't even know I had.

That sounds like a good plan man!

Nothing is better for clearing your head than a nice cruise.

Let's see some pictures of this baby!

Thanks. The only thing I need is gas. It was actually dirty when I took the pictures, notice the bugs on the front. Inside it is also just a clean, including the left bolster on the drivers seat. I see a lot of them damaged, do not know how precious owner kept to so good. I think I lucked out on the SVT wheels, they have 275/40/17 tires mounted on them. Again thanks.
