Well I was getting ready to buy a new system (cause i've been pounding mine for about 4 yrs ish and it just sounds like crap.) Now i'm not upgrading this year. really good reason though. i took the money i was going to spend on a stereo system for my car, and spent it on a 1964 ford thunderbird 2 door hardtop !!! 2600 canadian... has less than 50000 original miles on the original engine. no cancer. 390 with 300 hp. chrome everything! interior needs a bit of work, cause the door seals where off the car this past winter. so there is about $1000 worth of interior work. but i'm so happy.. the engine is quieter than the engine in my 2002 kia rio. no valve tick or anything... doesn't burn any oil... i think i got a steal

wow, that's like takin' candy from a baby. awsome price [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] that's a great investment,stereo just depreciates,that car will gain quite a bit of value. :cool:

that was my thoughts... plus right now i drive a kia... and i love cars. so you put the two together and you know i was looking for something else. when i went to visit my dad and his friend, i was walking up the backyard and saw the car sitting there... i asked my dads friend "what are you doing with a car like that" (he's not into cars at all) he said I'm helping my buddy sell it. i said how much. "last year he turned down 6,000, this year he's hard up for cash. has a buyer lined up for 2600." i said how bout i get it for that price... he said.... "ok!" i was so shocked i just about fell to the ground.. cut him a cheque. and then had to go to work :( pick it up on saturday. got the signed papers sitting at home. cant wait to cruise... in the famous words of ren and stimpy... "happy happy joy joy"

Nice score - I passed a similar year 2dr in traffic this morning. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

nice, what did you do? beat the old guy into submission?

nope nothing like that... i was just at the right place at the right time. if i didn't see the car then, it would of been sold the next day and i wouldn't of even known about it. i kind of feel like an ass for crushing someone elses dreams of owning a nice old car... but then i think... why should he get such a good deal.. lol

nice score!

pics pics pics !!!

I envy you man!
a 64 T Bird is a nice find.

(can't show you guys the car when its dirty like a surrey girl. well not that dirty. peace.
