It's killing me!
 

Just before Christmas I flew to St Louis to pickup my 24,679 original mile 1990 LX 5.0 Vert and drove it back to San Antonio Texas. As soon as I took delivery of the car I drove it straight back to San Antonio not knowingif this car wasgoing to make the trip back without any problems. Thank God it made it to Texas with zero problems. During the trip I stopped at a truck stop to do a quickexterior inspection of the car and noticed that the paint was a little faded to include the trim and mirrors. SO as soon as I got back to San Antonio I put it in the paint shop and it'sstill there today. I told the shop to take there time andto do a good job on it. What's driving me crazy is I didn't get a chance to really inspect this car and/or play with it. When I drove it back toSan Antonio all I wanted to do is get it home as soon as possible being that I really didn't know this car. Again it made the trip with no problems. I just wish I would have waited a week or so before putting it in the paint shop. Ok I vented, thanks for listening......I want my toy, I want my toy.......P.S. You can see the actual car I purchased at www.gatewayclassiccars.com Click on fords and look for the 1990 LX vert with the white top marked sold......det45

Yeah they are kind of high on their prices on some of their cars. Did you see the black with white stripes 5.0 stang on their web site? That car was featured on (PINKS) I got a close look at it when I was there to pickup my car.

RE: It's killing me!
 

I'm at the Marbach and ellison area. The car has been in the shop since Christmas, I guess I'm just whining being yours has been in for 5 months, Did they do a good job on your stang?

RE: It's killing me!
 

cool, im over on the 281 & bitters part. if the weather clears up a bunch of us are going out to the track this weekend. If you get your stang you should come out

RE: It's killing me!
 

That would be great, would you be able to do a tech inspection on my car once I get it back. It would be great to get someone to look at it with experience on 5.0s......

RE: It's killing me!
 

Yea i could check it out, i am by no means a certified tech, but i am getting better with the 5.0's.

Ok, email me your # and/or email address at keith.cronin@lackland.af.mil and I'll get in touch with you once I get my vert back. How did your paint job turn out?......det45
