Ever just have one of those days ?

Well I had one of them yesterday-  I have been holding onto my 69 Road Runner for a friend of mine who wanted to buy it...   been sitting on it for 6 months and turning away other offers to honor my word...     he called me up and mentioned his wife spent the money he was saving to buy it...    so...     in short I am stuck with my 69 RR for a while....       So...     look for a build thread coming up   haha      I do not have the time nor the money but I will damn sure build it...    I am getting the floors in hopefully this weekend along with the trunk...     doing some basic body work / patches -     I am thinking of painting it silver with a black interior. I sold the stroker but still have a 383 kicking it in my shed - I'll throw that pig in there along with my freshly redone 4-speed....   

This is not going to be a fully done car...   It will be nice but I am not going to go the perfectionist route I have in the past...    I have some 4.56 gears for it already...    just a fast street brawler.

Plan is to sell it as soon as its done.

I'm going to give you a big tip of the hat for honoring your word and i hope this won't discourage from doing it again.  Obviously it isn't how you planned for things to go but it probably wasn't how your friend wanted it either.  Good for you doing that and good for you going ahead positively and finishing the car.

I think if it was my wife who spent that money.....she'd better be getting it back really fast!!!!!

True that but hey things happen and thats how life goes. I hope you at least enjoy the build, I know I always enjoy a good build.
