I shouldn't be trolling much more.

I need to finalize the paper work with the bank on Tuesday, and after that somewhere around the end of next week or on the weekend I should be picking up this:

woaaa thats nice.. do you have any pics of that grill?
 
I'm just glad he was patient and understanding with all the crap that slowed the process down.

Lol it's not liek i had people beating down my door for it. There were a few people but i knew right of the bat they weren't serious.


the grill for those interested - standard issue "elky" mesh:

BTW, if anyone cares - i think i've found a suitable replacement:

~440 RWHP and 475 TQ and all supporting mods. I'm hoping it doesn't get sold out from under me...i have the dough for the car (well, as of tomorrow i will) but need to save some extra cash as a "buffer." Not to mention sales tax is probably gonna be close to 2 grand. But yeah i really like that one. I'm getting moist just thinking about it.



i guess i'll see everyone manana

I went for a ride in one of those before. Had over $15k worth of Steeda parts put into it...the only other time I feared for my life was when I rode in the guys twin turbo late 80's Mustang coupe.
 
i live on a steep hill and he seemed to be having trouble adjusting. needless to say there was tire smokage as he got to the top cause he had to stop behind chris and her husband (stop sign).

Of the very few times i've seen my car in motion i always thought it looked sick while moving. just was a little sad this time.

I think Elky needs to tea-bag Glenn's new ride: :D

Glenn is on his way home now, should be there around 4ish. All went fine on the way to my house.

Chris, you're getting the Cobra today?? :cool:
Sorry you were sad to see the SVT leave. I promise he will take care of it.
Thanks for the directions, it was much easier! Good seeing you again!


Hahaha, Glenn is a hooligan and a nutswinger. :help:
 
My gawd i'm so fat!!

Also LOL @ the broken mesh...should take that picture after he installs the new stuff!

I wish i was getting the cobra today ! I have to wait for the check(s) to clear, and get the insurance worked out. I'd also like to wait a little longer to save some extra money, cause if i were to pick up the car now i wouldn't even be able to register it.

BTW is your husband the one with the FOP plates? I meant to ask but forgot.
 
I answered your question via PM.

I told Glenn when he has off again and it's a bit warmer to come down and we would install the mesh and other parts that you gave him. We'll do a nice photo shoot afterward for you.

My bad on the "getting the Cobra today" question. I wasn't paying attention apparently and saw where Glenn quoted you with the picture of the Cobra, I saw "I am getting the SVT today and thought it was your signature. Sorry about that.
 
Holy :censored! That was hysterical! :laugh:
 
This car easily surpasses expectations.

And yes, the clutch was different from what I was used to, so it took a few minutes. As for the burnout, I figured I'd let you have a good way to see her leave.
