What Can Ya Say With A Wife Like This?!

Ponyman66

Ponyman66

Yak, yak, yak
Several weeks back the wife was asking how much I would need for the remaining large expenses. I outlined the bigger costs, upholstery, carpet, mostly interior stuff, as well as a few "larger" exterior things left. Keep in mind all of my really big expenses have already been addressed (suspension, engine/drivetrain, brakes, paint, etc..). I gave her a ballpark figure and that was that.

I took this week off from work, primarily to get some work done on the coupe. Today out of the blue I get a call at home from her. She tells me, "check your bank account, the money you need is in it." HOLY CRAP!! :yah

Even though publicly she states that she hates Mustangs (which several of you have been present to hear before), I think I'll keep her around for at least another 29 years! :thum
 
That's 2 things I will NEVER hear from mine. 1. That she hates Mustangs.
2. That she put money in my account.

I think her professed hatred comes from two things. First, I taught...correction, TRIED to teach her how to drive manual in my '65 fastback I had when we were dating. It was a six with the paper three speed. Fortunately I worked as a drive train mechanic at a local Ford dealership at the time. I rebuilt the thing what seemed to be every other week from her tearing it up. The second thing was right after being married we'd take my car I bought right before getting married, my '66 fastback, whenever we'd go anywhere. The car got more attention than she did (read-jealousy!). It went downhill after that. Although, she DID buy the coupe for me!

Yeah Craig, actually she does. Let's just say, I DEFINITELY got the better one though (and I could write a book on all of the reasons why!!).
 
That's pretty cool. She's a keeper for sure.

I would like to say Jen would do the same, if she had the money. Our deal when I bought my mustang was only my bonus was to be used on the car. Then a couple years ago I had a wheel come off and needed to get the fender replaced. Insurance covered it, but the guy doing the work offered to repaint my entire car for $4500. She told me to go ahead and do it, but I didn't.
