Yep, she should be all done in about 1-2 hours wiht transmission work ($1,200- 1,400 oh yeah plus $75 for towing bc the noises she was making made me want to cry I thought she would cough some parts up and die). Mom'* helping me out with half, thank god bc I've had enough of driving around my old car my parents kept... the "TEMPO"!
Anyways... I'll have a bit more debt than I already do but it'* still very managable (as long as I don't go max out the Victoria'* Secret card
jk I won't)! Hopefully i can pick her up before I have to be at work at 4:30 tonight... if not after but I'll be still just as happy to drive her again!

Melissa, I feel your pain. (I'm sure you remember my whining thread
). Glad to hear your Bonneville will be back on the road today.

One of mine is going in to the shop in an hour. I'll pick it up after work. I don't normally like to leave the car there for relatively short work, but in this case, I have to be at work.
I'll be re-setting the trip odometer.

Glad to hear you are able to get it done.
Although..I hear Fordboy was aiming to get a forum created for the two tempo drivers on the club.
