Today I got more Mustang parts. Mike and his dad picked up a 1967 coupe from Payson. This car was owned by a Mustang Friend by the name of Larry. Sadly, he passed away in December. His wife Grace was trying to clean things up and asked Mike and his dad to sort thru all the mustang parts. They spent a few hours in Payson sorting thru things. She also was nice enough to let them buy this car off of her. They were able to take all the parts they wanted off of it and then sold what was left to another friend. So I now have the Disc breaks for my car. They even ended up being power disc brakes. I also have replacement front seats, and a rear view mirror. I feel honored that I get to have parts of Larry's car in my car.
Mike also picked up the carpet underlining (sound deadner) last weekend. He went to a car show while I was babysitting Jenny's kids. I guess some guy won the underlining in the raffle but he didn't have a car that it would work on so he asked if anyone else could use it. Mike spoke up so the man gave it to him. It was nice getting the underlining for free.
There have been a bunch of parts given to us. Mike's parents gave us a bunch of stuff they had for stored away. Then the random guy at the car show. It is good to see parts coming in without all the money going out. I am getting to the expensive part though. We have done about all we can without money.
I am working on getting back into the mustang again. I ordered a bunch of catalogs from Mustang Parts stores. I already have a spreadsheet of parts I need. Once I get the catalogs I will compare and make sure I am getting the best deal possible on these parts. I am excited to get going on that. Anyways... I am hoping that within the next couple of months things will pick up and I will be able to leave more posts. I guess we will see what happens.
