No miles really since the new build.. Her fuel pump went bad while doing the last build.. Waiting for the new (omg I forgot what it is called) part because when he replaced the fuel pump about 6yrs ago he bought one from steeda and he had to hack up the harness for it and the new one they sent said to use the stock one but he didn't have the stock one so we are waiting for the new one to come in.. It SHOULD be here today!! I am soooo excited!!! I miss her soooo much... The windows are as dark as it is allowed by law here.. We do cruise in her alot.. We just drove her to Oklahoma back in Feb because we had to make an emergency trip there because my grandfather passed away and she got 25 mpg.. Love it.. She has a LONG story behind her but I would never let or make him get rid of her.. I love her..

He did the fuel pump and cranked it up and it is still running the same way.. So I am going to take it to a shop that I trust.. Just can't afford it right now.. I do miss his car something awful though.. I know he does too.. I wish I could take it right away.. I feel so bad.. But he is starting to think maybe it is electrical.. I just dunno anymore..

Electrical issues are never fun. I'm sorry for your troubles and not being able to enjoy the Stang. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Maybe I will be able to beat Gary home this time to start a pic thread.. lol.. Probably not cause my ol girl is non turbo.. lol.. But I got something for Lance's baby that he doesn't know about yet. On our way back from Oklahoma in Feb a rock flew up and put a big chip in the windshield right where your sight is on drivers side so I set it up for him to get a new windshield next week and it will have the pony on there also.. lol. I hope it cheers him up some. She has been sitting in the garage way to long.. Man I miss her.. Need to pray to the car gods some I guess. lol.. Sry if I offended anyone I was not trying to..

When she is up and running again she will be drivin.. He will drive her to go sub or to the docs or what ever else we can't do together to drive Smurfette.. Man I miss her. I wish I had the extra money to take her to ford to get her diagnosed to get her back on the road..
