Well at least we don't have Dealer Adjustments here. It is called Dealer prep and can range any amount they want as they can claim they had to do a lot more to get one car ready than another. I to figure the dealer greed will drive the Shelby GT-500s out of the normal persons buying range. I haven't priced the 05 Convertible as I just haven't been to any dealer yet that has one in stock. But I think I have bought my last car anyway, so the prices are not very important to me.

Alright, You two got it. I fixed the sending unit. Checked it out last night and it worked fine.
SOOooooooooo, I am down to two thingys left, I got a bad axel seal and a clutch problem. The axels out and ready to be dropped off at a machine shop. The clutch, I am not sure about. I tried the paper clip on the clutch and it didn't fix it. Added the fuzz and still no workie. I'll get it soon. Hey, it's suppose to snow on Thursday. Go figure. :3DSMILE: |
Tru,
Throw some snow on the clutch. Hope the axel comes out ok and wasn't hurt any. Just what is your clutch doing anyway? We had wind here last night like you wouldn't believe. I thought it was going to blow the house away. It is still blowing this morning but at a much lower level. Temperatures are in the high 60s and low 70s just this darned wind. Ron %/ |
I get the axle back today.
Man, what happened to this thread? It went dead. Is everyone in the head? hehehe It is raining. The trees needed it very badly. No coffee, my mind has gone to mush. |
I'm here, I'm here.......
Been nice here lately..... Getting little things done each day...... Lots of time spent back and forth to the parts shop, what a drag, lots of trial and error in fitments................... |
good grief I was away two days and you guys added two pages.
|
Tru,
You are gaining. It will be ready in no time now. :cool: Earl, Take the car to the parts place. It will save many trips. Believe me, I have been through this. We finally loaded a friend of mine's car on the trailer and just took it with us. I figure that alone saved us at least 25 trips. :D Ron %/ |

Kristen |
Kristen,
Nice of you to pop in. I was starting to wonder what had happened to you and Lil Mike. Strange that you should both vanish at the exact same time. :D Ron :LOL: **) |
Hi all, I just got back from the doctors office. It seems the operation I had scheduled for this past Monday is no longer an option but now a necessity. The spot they found has grown larger and the people that read the films are now saying it is consistent with cancerous growths. So the operation has been scheduled for May 2nd. So I have only a few days to make some progress on the Cobra before I am laid up for a couple of months. Wish me luck and keep me in your thoughts......Earl
|
Sorry to hear this Earl.
You'll be in my thoughts AND prayers. |
Earl:
How many times do you have to be told, stay away from doctors. Every time I go to mine they try to take something out of fix something. They're never satisfied. Hope everything works out well. I'll keep a good thought for you. DonC |
Earl, our friend. Good thoughts for you. Take the couple of months 'off' time as time to acquaint yourself with the build manual, and getting to know all the details of your car. well, I hope their is a build manual... You KNOW you'll be in our thoughts, and our prayers, on May 2, and the following weeks.
Kristen |
Earl...we'll keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Don't be a stranger here during that time off though.
|
Earl, l keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

mikez. i know. I believe the 'Indian Nation' has requested the YMCA quit using the term Indian Princess/Indian Guide. There is another name, but don't know what!! My brother is 38 yo, and he was in Indian Guides. Old habits (names) are hard to break.

no, no dots! It's very secretive tho'. there might be dots and I don't know it.... all washed off before they get home....
she did come home with dots, one time, now that I think of it.... chiggers!! :LOL: |
Earl,
Really sorry to hear about your upcoming surgery. You will definately be in my prayers and just e-mail me any time that you feel up to exchanging insults or just want to vent. Rest and as Kristen said, use some of the time to read the build manual and really get familiar with each step. Best wishes my friend and stay in touch. I will be e-mailing you from time to time to see how things are going. Ron :) |
