  • thinking of parting my car

    anybody ever get stuck at a point where you dont know what to do?
    on one hand you have poured money into it and you dont want it to be for nothing, and on the other hand, you realize you dont have the money to keep pouring into a money pit. i already listed it for sale for way more than it will ever bring. sigh

          My 98 is like that, third time the motor has given problems. It's been sitting more or less since Christmas eve. I've got way too much in it to sell, parting it would net me a decent return all things considered. I'll most likely pull the motor, see what's hurt, and make another go at it again I imagine.

            Most mustang people never "finish" their car to a point of satisfaction. As soon as its done they fig
            ure out a way to keep throwing money at it. Get a daily and stay out of the garage for a few weeks.
            One day at a time.

                      My 98gt was like that - when i realized i that the powertrain was bullshit and was like trying to make fat albert run track, i gave up. Everything on the car was obsolete and the aftermarket wasnt making parts any more since thy were focusing on the new.

                      The car hobby as a participant is a money pit.

                      As a spectator its far more efficient and i dont get bloody knuckles.

                          If you sell it, you WILL be sorry later.

                          Buy a daily driver.

                          or buy a race car.

                          Kept my first Hot Rod in a barn for years and then went back to it.

                          Ah, good times.
