Last week we relived our worst weather experience in our Mustangs. Glad to hear most of us survived.

This week's question.

What kind of SWMBO do you have?
A. One who supports your Mustang fetish and gladly goes to the shows and swap meets.

B. One who ignores your Mustang fetish, lets you do your own thing, but doesn't get involved.

C. One who tolerates your Mustang fetish, as long as you pay attention to her and her girly things everyonce and a while.

D. One who hates your Mustang , is jealous of it, and acts like it is a mistress that she can't get rid of.

Mine.

A. I'm Lucky I've got one of the good ones. SWMBO supporrts my hobby and enjoys a good show everyonce and a while.

I'm lucky too, C definatly C, I look at it this way, all the parts I buy for the 66 cost double or more, because for everything I buy for the car, I buy her something of equal or greater value.

A, B & C

She tolerated me buying it. Hated when I spent some serious cash on the suspension. Loved meeting the VMFers at Knotts and wants to go again. Hates the fact that I need to get the engine rebuilt but keeps asking when I'm going to start the fix.
Oh and she really likes being seen in it.

Basically ya got to know when to make your moves and when not to. Right now its her project we are concerned with (kitchen & baths remodel). I'll wait my turn/forums/images/icons/wink.gif.

A. She got me into the Mustang hobby/business, helps me with the cars, goes to the shows (I only go to 2 per year) and will even finance some of the projects. I'm quite lucky with SWMBO and our mustangs....but she really doesn't like the Model A's that I prefer to work on. /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

A mix between an A and a C depending on her mood. Mostly an A, but only goes to the shows close to home.

mines an A :0) we went to a swap meet on the honey moon :0)..... and our first date was to a junk yard ....:0) wouldn't trade her for anything!!!!
 
#19 ·
Mine is an A she loves the cars as much as I do she even has two mustangs of her own!!! I am down to one as I gave my 67 coupe to my oldest son this summer. she goes to all the shows with me, even gets the family to buy me parts for the cars on christmas!!! She is the greatest!!!
 
#20 ·
Just like most everybody else, a mixture of A and C. . . .

She supports the time and effort I put into my hobby, and . . . thankfully I have enough financial discipline not to get that $5K paint job I've been wanting for some time now /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif!! Then she'd be a D!! /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Most of the time an A, especially if she gets to drive our 67 Fairlane to a show and I drive my 70 Torino. The Torino doesn't have power steering so she doesn't care to drive it. I don't know what we'll do when the Mach is done and we want to take them all to a show, guess I'll have to hire a driver, LOL. She can be a C once in a while, but mostly an A.
 
#22 ·
Ditto on the cross between A and C, but I don't have much time for meets or shows. So she's very understanding considering the amount of time and money spent. When I told her, hey I'm taking our income tax check, flying to Tenn and driving home a car, she was ok with it. Then I told her that the check wasn't enough I was going to need more money, that was ok too. I can't complain at all. ( not hard to look at either)
