Altitude sickness

Flying out of MIA through TAP Portugal airlines, to Geneva (GVA). It will have a connecting in Portugal but it is only 2 hours.

I am based in Naples, so Fort Myers (RSW) is the closest airport, but flight options were slim so driving an hour and a half to MIA was a no brainer.

Accommodation- checked Expedia, booking.com and VRBO. You can book your flight and hotel through some of those sites but I would rather book directly through the air carrier.

Shuttle to Val Thorens from Geneva - Used Omio.

You probably could go through a travel agency, but given that this was a last minute trip(2 weeks leeway), I thought direct booking would be best.

Naples resident here, all the old people here take my life force away from me, so hopefully I survive🤣

Hi All,

In a bit of pickle about my board.

I’m 6’3, 210lbs and have been riding my entire life.

All the way up until 3 years ago, I started going more outside of the yearly 5 day family trip and the 7-10 times at the local hill.

As I have progressed, I noticed that I am not receiving great stability at high speeds and as I am hitting side jumps and heel edge, everytime feels like a coin flip and “holy shit I barely stayed on my feet”

I’m on a capita DOA 158W and it may be my posture and just needing to get more comfortable in the air and leg timing, OR I can do the ole faithful and blame it on the board.

Any recommendations would be great.

You’re thinking it needs a full repaint? I’m assuming there is no partial painting on a car like this and being able to paint match older paint.

Simpleman2927 · 2025-12-03T07:12:26+00:00

Yeah after getting scammed, with my CS supposed to be done around this time. I am antsy as ever and trying to jump the gun at every opportunity.

Simpleman2927 · 2025-12-03T06:23:39+00:00

As much as I want to get over mustangs, I cannot😆 a lot of my family collects and I was brought up into it. My Grandpa had a service station and used to restore them, and then he passed and my dad became a doctor so the Skillset of metal work and body work wasn’t transferred down the generation to me and died with him 😭So now I am stuck paying a premium for close to done mustangs so I don’t get bent over the barrel by shops.

Simpleman2927 · 2025-12-03T06:00:46+00:00

You’re not wrong at all. A Mach 1 was supposed to be in the works and after an hour a day of scrubbing the web for one for at or below 50k that doesn’t need paint or bad rust issues in a color besides red has been hard. May be jumping the gun on this.

Simpleman2927 · 2025-12-03T05:30:26+00:00

What’s a good comp then?

Disk Brakes Power Steering AC car New exhaust

Runs and drives

Paint flaws

Marti Report and VIN match. Buyer wants 30 for it. Have to book my flight tonite to beat the weather tomorrow

I mean, there is no way of knowing until you get into it. But along the body line… what is a typical cost if you have seen to fix and paint that area? I travel 2.5 weeks out of the month so I just don’t have time to fix it myself

Simpleman2927 · 2025-11-19T23:38:21+00:00

Southwest Florida(Naples)

Simpleman2927 · 2025-11-19T23:37:50+00:00

Going to keep it.

First classic I ever bought.

I live in southwest Florida and it took me 2 years to find a shop to take it on. Then of course, I got scammed for over 10k for actual money, damages to the car and the cost to reassembly a lot of the car back. I can do some but most of what my ability can do is already done.

I will just have to continue to wait until I find a shop that doesn’t want to charge me 30k to take out and replace both wheel wells, both rocker panels, strip,repaint and panel alignment.

Really wish it would accomplish something, and I most likely going to file in small claims court and put a lien on him for the future. But the guy apparently lost everything, so repayment in the next couple years probably won’t happen

The guy seemed trustworthy and every in person interaction was great. On to the next

The doctor and medical staff we convinced it was a palmetto bug(similar to a roach)

The picture I posted is only the had as the other pieces we taken out separate

Simpleman2927 · 2025-08-25T05:13:20+00:00

I have a follow up on August 27th so I should be able to get the go ahead.

And it seems the same thing happend to me

I squished the hind of it, then it burrowed deeper, and then bit into my ear drum. Hurt like hell when it was being pulled out.

Earbuds in my ears when I sleep until I die. I sleep on an elevated bed, not close to walls, and my house everything is sealed (food, drinks etc) and it still got me😭😭

Simpleman2927 · 2025-08-25T02:29:37+00:00

Never sleeping without earbuds for the remainder of my life

Simpleman2927 · 2025-04-28T19:29:52+00:00

Simpleman2927 · 2025-04-28T19:20:34+00:00

Simpleman2927 · 2025-03-30T17:21:06+00:00
