At 66 years year old it looks like I am going t finally get my dream car. mustang. Was reading this forum last night and was dismayed to discover that instead of the 6-8 week build time I envisioned it is more like 5 months! Is this true even if I am building a simple ecoboost? All that is really stopping me from buying off the lot is I want MY color and MY stripes etc. (no drastic add-ons etc.). In any event my real question is how do you finance a build? In the past I have always simply financed thru the dealer for the purchase of a car on their lot. This time I want to pre-arrange financing with my credit union, but dont most loan agreements have an "expriation" (ie. the terms of the loan are good for 30 days). So if my build takes 5 months, do I wait until it arrives to finance not knowing what the final terms will be, or can I finance now and simply wait until the car arrives to "activiate" the loan? Would love to hear how others would do it. I expect to have my downpaymnt in October so thought I could place my order in August and be safe knowing the car wont arrive until after then (yes, I know I will need $500-$1000 down to place the order. Thanks for any suggestions
