Had a weak moment ---- Sold my '67 mustang today

:unhappysmiley: Sold my '67 to a Childhood friend who also lives 2 houses down from me. I'ts going to a good home but, now I'm sitting here in my garage staring at it before he comes and picks it up this evening. I guess I'm starting to have sellers remorse! I've had this car for 13 years. At least he told me I had visitation rights! It's just gonna be hard seeing this car drive past my house!

I built a 73' model year Chevy Vega into a super street car. And damn I miss this car. I feel sorry you have to see your car close still by. Follow this.....

My Vega was build my me and a friend from the ground up. 2 x 4 steel frame. Narrowed 9" Ford rear end. 4 link suspension. Floorboard completely tubbed with M50's installed. 4 wheel disc completely around. Muncie rock/crusher 4 speed trans. with in-line shifter. Started out with a 283 sm/blk. Then 355 sm/blk. Then a 406 sm/blk. w/short tail 400 turbo competition built for street use. White lacquer paint w/red flip/flop. 1 piece fiberglass tilt front end with push button open/close (+ hood/fender pins). Much, much more also....

Sold to friend at work to put new roof on my home in 92'. Moved to Tennessee from MI. in 94'. In 98' I see this guy at "work" where I work. I ask "Where's MY car"? He said in Columbia in my garage. NOT 20 miles from me!!!!! He hadn't driven it nor did he want to sell it. It was on blocks just waiting to hit the streets again. I couldn't hardly stand it.....

What is going to be hard is watching it drive by to your friends home...
