Hey everyone,

Today would’ve been my father’s birthday, and it feels bittersweet. He passed away recently, and he left me his ‘96 Mustang GT convertible. It holds a lot of memories, and I’d love to get it back in running shape to honor him.

Earlier this year, while my dad was in the hospital, I tried getting it fixed. It was barely running, and the AC wasn’t working. The shop repaired the AC and found additional issues. They worked on it, but right when they said it was ready to go, the car completely died in their lot (luckily, not on the highway). They tried troubleshooting for a few days but couldn’t pinpoint the problem, so I eventually had to have it towed back home.

I’m looking for someone in central Florida who’s experienced with these Mustangs and could help get it running reliably again. A mobile mechanic who could look at it where it’s parked would be ideal, but I can arrange a tow if needed.

I’m currently living in Taiwan, but I’m planning to be back this week to help my mom and handle things. This car is special to me, and I’d be incredibly grateful for any leads or help.

Thanks in advance, and I look forward to connecting.

What kind of mechanic was that? Does it have spark and fuel, and is it on time? I hope you didn't pay them. Any competent mechanic could diagnose this.

you're the second person to say something like this. Hopefully I find a competent mechanic now. :)
