I had a '68 Mustang. Loved that car. Drove it for 16 years.
Sold it for more than what I paid for as it had become a collecters item.
Because parts had to be specially made when it got older, I decided it was costing to much.

Even today when I see a Mustang my heart skips a beat. cheering

Why in storage? Are you able to fix cars yourself?
Trouble was my sweet late husband did not know the carburator from the radiator rolling on the floor laughing

No, it is in beautiful condition. I am saving it for a rainy day. It is an original 68 Camaro with only 45,000 original miles on it. I have it in storage so it is safe.

My aunt had a '67 Mustang convertible. I was hoping so bad that she'd save it & give it to me when I got my license... but she didn't... sigh

Do you ever display her?
About once a year the owners bring out their "babies" in my town.
A lot of money has gone into them that is for sure.
That is an unbelieveable low milage.
Don't you have to run her at times, got her on blocks?


yay

Lot's of moola down the drain Lana.
I bought mine while living in California.
Paid around $3.000 dollars for her.
She was one year old when I bought it.
It was driven mostly by women for some reason.
Drove her back to Canada when I moved in '79

I fire her up about every 2 months just to keep the engine turned over. Otherwise I drive it very little. Sometimes around the block. Around Christmas time I usually drive it in a parade or two.

If your pet needed a heart transplant would you do it?
Or any other big operation?
Some dogs have problems with their hips and it needs to be fixed.
Usual the larger dogs have this problem.
Pets today are getting better and faster care than do human beings, at least here in Canada.
Hospitals for animals are a gold mine for the vets.

OK...I think you posted the vet thing on the wrong thread that you started...laugh laugh

I used to own a 1973 Mercury Comet...she was my first car. Totaled her 10 days after I got my license. I bought a 1963 Chrysler Newport next, complete with push-button automatic shift. Really cool car, owned that one for years. Had someone hit me and then she was vandalized while she waited at the shop for me to come up with the money for the repairs and parts she needed. (I only had liability insurance on her.) sigh Both were beauties, and I loved them dearly.
