Well I bought two yes two cars today...and it only cost a mere 100 dollars. My friend is a fireman and people donate there cars to the department and they sell them to the public for 50 a car.

So I went over there to look at a 88 S-10 and well then I saw something I couldn't pass up. A 1986 Mustang GT in good condition...it had 147,981 miles on it but hey what do I care. I couldn't pass up the 5.7L engine its to to to nice. So my friend lent me a trailer and I towed the stang home with the S-10.

My mom was like what the hell I thought you were only going to go look at a truck. I laughed and said something else caught my eye. So now I have three cars, The Spyder, The S-10, and the The Stang. Oh I feel like a little kid again. :lol:

Oh and if you are wondering the reason I bought a truck is because I'm going up north this weekend and my Eclipse wouldn't handle the place I'm going so I was like hell 50 bucks for some 4x4 action.

Well I'm excited!!!! Time to go work on my new cars :D
 
Man, there is no Mustang with a 5.7L V8

is it like super old (1960-1970's) There is a slight chance of there being a Mustang with a 351 or 5.8L but it would have been an engine swap.
 
Heh that's like Doug buying that Cherokee for $28...

My bro has had 3 cars for, well, a long time. And he has all them parts cars/fixer-uppers. Becomes a pain, luckily he only keeps the MX-6 and the Probe here, the 626 is at grammy's garage, and the parts cars are at this abandoned school that they use as a shop(works really well, but it's going to be bought out early next year and then he will have to stop doing this...).

And one of my freind's uncles runs this repo place or something like that and he can get cars really cheap and fix them up. I told my freind that if any MX-3 GSs roll in there, have him tell me or call me. But my friend doesn't see the uncle often, so I doubt that it will work...
 
Joey D,
How in the world do you just happen to be on the receiving end of so many cool auto deals.
I've been keeping track. Honda -->MX-3-->Eclipse-->'Stang and truck.
I should be hanging with you.:D
Congrats on the great deal, bro.
Enjoy.
 
Alright I didn't know what engine I had in it and my friend said it was a 5.7L but I didn't look last night. Well I looked today and realized it was a 5.0. Stupid me!

Anyway got me how I keep coming acrossed great auto deals. It's nice though I love getting cheap cars.

The Stang is runnig rough though. It needs some work. The back end needs to be fix. But what did I expect for 50 bucks.

Oh well I might be turning the stang into a go-kart/ sand-rail with some help from my friends who are ****ing nuts. But this is a maybe.

Alright I'm going to shut up now.
 
the truck is a little rusty and beat up but thats just for Friday night and Saturday.

the stang is a little beat up as well but if I put about a couple of hundred bucks into it, it'll run fine.
 
Well I drove the stang to school. God it was a beast and its bald tires didn't like the rain to well. I manage to spin it back in my neighborhood after my brother told me to floor it going around a coner. That was fun though. Its got a lot I mean a lot more pick up then my spyder.

I'm going to take pictures when the weather clears up. I don't want to be outside right now...it cold, wet and rainy.

I can tell you it is white and has a blackish stripe on the hood. It needs to be washed but the rain should do that.

It at my friends house as well cause there is no room in our driveway. I mean my car, my truck, my mom's PT, and our two work vans.

Also I found a supercharger for the car for 200 bucks...its used and my friend got it from God knows were...but he told me we can put it on the Stang. Oh I can't wait. :D
 
DAMN IT snow killed my little up north trip. It seems they have to much snow. Oh well we still might go tomarrow for a little bit.
