So I didnt get my parts from Bill as quick as I thought I would (my fault, it helps to order :rofl: ) as I posted in that other thread forever ago. I had to be out of my free storage space by 05/01 so the car was taken to the paint shop on 04/29.
Its been more then a month now and still no Cougar. :( I do stop by every now and then and it is making progress, just painfully slow progress. Every time the estimated completion time is a little further ahead. :rolleyes:
Im anxious to get it back and even more anxious to get it off of my damn credit cards.

What is going to be even worse is that I will get it home, and I might not even get to license it before I have to leave for work. Ill find out about that hopefully in the morning. It will get to sit in the garage for another month before I will even get to see it again. At least the paint will have time to cure in a protected environment.
Id take it but I dont trust it with a road trip with me only putting .25 miles on in my entire time of ownership. The Volvo will be more liveable with three adults and a bunch of ****. Id hate to be the rear passenger in the Cougar, especially since the smallest of us that are leaving is 5'11".

Too bad she will need to be untinted to pass legally. 30% on the fronts is illegal in UT.
