After two and a half years of Mustang convertible ownership, I had to have a rethink. I love, love, loved the car, but it was completely impractical for a family. The boot was tiny, absolutely no use for weekend shows especially with a wife and daughter. So, a plan emerged.
I stuck the car on Ebay and got a suitable amount of mickey takers, but one gent offered a swap for this:
'95 Astro dayvan - 4.3 Vortec V6 (goes canny!), full leather, drives lovely, double bed in the back with the bench seat folded and the captains chairs rotated! It needs a few things sorting; alloys are corroded, one of the seatbelts is jammed, p/s leccy window works when it feels like it. Nothing major though, wife and daughter love it, and I'm growing quite fond myself.
All's hopefully not lost as far as Mustangs go - there might be an early Fox hatch in my near future for me to play with when we're not doing family things in the van. Stay tuned!
