Slick 60's

My Daughter works with a local film company. She hired on at a time when they were going through a lean period, but through diligent work, she proved to be an invaluable person for the company & a great help to the boss. He told her that if she could stick it out, when things turned around & were going well, he would give her a raise & buy her a car.
She got a raise a couple weeks ago & started doing some car shopping. Her current vehicle is getting pretty tired & a raise would help get her some new, more dependable wheels. She started looking at some '02 Mustangs that were in her price range & sharing some of her findings with her fellow employees & boss...I don't think the thought crossed her mind that he was really serious about that car thing he said way back when...




...until yesterday, when he asked her to take a detour on the way to work, ending up at a Ford dealership. Waiting at the dealership, with a bunch of balloons tied to it, was this brand NEW '08 Mustang GT!





Smells like leather in here.



This perma-grin will be hard to wipe off for a while, I'm sure.



168 miles on the clock.



Here's the '91 4-banger she's driven since High School. (pic from '05 after dropping the tranny for rebuild #2.)

Yea that sounds like a good day!!

Doesn't get much better than that. Mustang as a free car has to put a perma grin on anyones face.

DANG sounds like good people to work for that's great.
It means a lot to work for a company that appreciates and cares for a person like they do.
Glad to here things are going good for her slick fan.





The old skinflint tightwad I work for keeps me in a 66 ford truck I'm gonna have to have a talk with him someday.

That is a great story and I'm happy for her, obviously she takes after her mother in looks!.


Alan,

Thats Awesome! Not only does she have a good boss, hes smart too. automatics wins races too!!! My Nephews 06 brought him home several trohpys last year thanks to that. his first racing, season and nobody saw him coming, lmfao

She's a beauty, and the car dont look bad either. I'm happy for her.

Thanks, you guys. I'm definitely proud of her, always have been. She's a great kid.
Yep, from a tough time standpoint, this bit of good news is definitely welcome. As one of my wife's co-workers exclaimed yesterday... "FINALLY, SOME GOOD NEWS!!"

Alan, you're right. I don't think she got her looks from me.
