I've been telling them that I budgeted for the work (like call me if exceeds $$$), and that every day I drive the rental surely impacts what I'm willing to pay them for the 'work performed.'

brian how did you make out with your scrap run?

anybody here interested in a new-in-box remote car starter? i have one for sale, pm me if you are interested.

i hope nobody was involved with the 91N "i forgot how to drive in snow" bumper cars around middletown-hartford. it took forever to get home.

dave - what power ant. did you get, is it aftermarket or a ford part?

no, before i installed it on the mustang i hotwired the starter to see if the car would drive itself through the park brake.....it does. so no remote starter for her. my original plan was to go through the neutral safety switch, but there is none. i dont trust her enough to install it without any safety cutout. i can picture the car driving itself across new haven into a school bus full of babies and nuns.

andy, good luck at the races! you will need to post up the results ASAP.
