So I haven't posted here in years since selling my Stang, but I came across something I had to share. When I was in high school, my Mustang was my life. Every dollar I earned, I put in it (well, sorta). Scrolling through CL today I found it. Whoever got it after me beat it to crap and it absolutely makes me sick. I know for a fact it's mine because of the HPP sticker on the back, the Saleen wing that I installed, and the Steeda Tri-Ax. I feel sick now.

Here it was at its best.

And how she sits today.

Sorry for the pity party.

People dont take care of shit. And then you have to deal with it when they park next to you in a parking lot, or many other annoying situations where they feel property doesn't really deserve respect. I can imagine how you feel though. My ex bitch sold my 96 Cobra while I was deployed. I have no idea where that thing is or who has it. I treated that car like a kid.

UPDATE: Got an e-mail from the guy about it. Said it was already sold. Buyer's plans are to fix up the body and resale. He gave me his number, so I may track it down.

The ad was for $5,000.. I traded it in 5 years ago for $7,000. If that guy bought it for $5,000 it's stuck at the very least at that price. Car is nowhere near that and I know it. Just sad...

I do not understand what is "sad" about it. it is no longer your car, it is his car and he can do to it what he wants. to get exersized to the point where "you could just cry" is silly

same happened to me. i sold a clean black 97 to this kid from the next town over. i could hear him red-lining it for about 5 straight minutes after he paid for the car and left. saw him 2 or 3 times since then and he's always at like 6000rpms and driving like a tool

Might be taking him just a tad too seriously? After caring for something long enough only to see it be miss treated by somebody else is enough to bring one of these -> :( and one of these -> :nonono:.

Look at the bright side, by the looks of it at least he got the ride height better than you did... I kid I kid!!! I would be unhappy to see that as well! Its crazy to think that somebody could take something so sexy and **** it up so badly. :nonono:

That's why I never go looking for them afterwards. I traded in my Dakota R/T in with 20K miles on it after buying it new 6 years prior. It still smelled new inside. Hate to think what happened to it.
