Hey guys...whats up...I'm new to the area and the site. Was hoping to meet some people in the area. My car needs some work and would love if someone would want to help out. Will repay with help on your car, beer, pizza, etc.

PS I'm a broke college student.

The reason for this post is because I have my 93 GT and I really want to keep it, but sometimes its just too much, especially with little time and money to make due with. I don't want to give it up for some commuter car with better gas mileage and an AUTO.

Anyways guys hit me up. Glad to join the community

Rob

Welcome to the site! [patriot]

I'm sure you'll find someone in your area, willing to work with you and your car. [Big Grin]

Good luck man. There are TONS of Mustang owners around your area.

Try posting on Craigslist as well. Don't give out too much information.

Wow...I really appreciate everyone's welcome...I'm glad I came upon this site. Just came up here to Santa Cruz and almost sold my GT and I just couldn't do it

Basically needs a bunch of work in a couple areas...got some clutch issues. The throwout bearing squeeks and I have only 2k on a king cobra clutch I recently got installed.

Also needs a heater core...I know this is a large job and don't really expect someone to want to help me tackle this..

Also idle quality isn't too good...thinking I need a new TPS or IAC...

If you're down 84...I could swing by sometime. Where you live at? I see you have a nice list of Fords there. How long you been into this hobby?

Once again...I want to thank everyone so far. I'm starting to like Nor Cal more and more as I live here longer ( only been here since beginning of September).
