Will be a sad day
Ever since I was 11 yrs old and became obessed with driving,
I have wanted a Mustang.
Not just any Mustang a 64 1/2 conv. w/ the org. 289 4 speed. I have several hot wheel cars, some other sizes that I have found & the one that cost me the most was my favorite model...The one that came from the derby Mint. It has a certificate of authancey with a number of how many were made. It cost $100 back in 1991 when I got it. Anyone that know me knows of my obession with the Mustang. Most would go so far to say that when they are not with me and they see a Mustang the 1st person they think of is Me!!! I have even had ex-boyfriends tell me that.
So...I finally get the point in my life when I can buy a Mustang, however it's not the 64 1/2 conv., but it is a 1994 GT 5.0/ 5 speed. I get to drive it off the lot with only 170miles on it. I was on my own living with a friend. I worked 2 jobs for 5 years to pay for that car. So much has happened in my car. I'm always the one that drives when me & my friends (use to ) go out (I didn't drink & drive). So I was the DD all the time & I did not mind. I love to drive.
However...The car is now going to be 12 yrs old on Jan. 31,06. The last 3 years a lot of money has gone into. Not all my money...My parents have helped me out. I have a 5yr old now & can't work 2 jobs. Last week the bill was in the $600 range & today was another bill in the $600 range. The mach. Told my dad that there is about another 1,200 that it will need sooner than later. This you see makes me VERY sad. My mom & dad have said they will not put any more money in it. I'm going to cry if they make me sell my car. That is the only thing I have to show for, that I bought & payed for on my own. I'm 34yrs old and life has thrown me a HUGE curve ball.
How do I make them understand how much this car means to me and what it represents for me & my life????
Sad day is about to come :(

Pictures of Vivien are great. She is so damn cute.
Ummm . . .I totally understand about the car representing something to you, but when they start paying for the repairs then doesn't it lose some of that?
the only one that i have not payed for is last yr & that was only because it was $1,200 all at once. The trama that just happened they will get the money back as well as the $1,200. I just thought Vivien's school was more important and asked if I could work out some kind of payment thing with them. So..no it does not lose anything.
That's really tough. I understand the symbolism but in the end it seems like with all the money you're having to put into it for repairs, you could have gotten a newer car. Don't be mad. I'm the same way with some of my things. I hope you're able to work something out.
linny, how could i be mad at you. you could be right about the money and getting a newer car. i don't know why im so attached to that car. it will all work out the way it's suppose to, god always leads me in the right direction even if i don't understand or like it at the time. :)
