Savlan, Nice Ride! Ya, I knew I liked you lol

Treize, I Love the pony package on the 06+ models. Ive got the appearance package with the stripe on the lower rocker, and the wing. I really like the pony fog lights Far better than the GT.

My old mustang was a 69 with a 302. I made the Horrible mistake of being a total newb moron and blew up my 69. Long before I had a clue as to what I really had.

All I knew was it did 100mph without breathing hard. Shame though, really, as I took the freeway offramp and down shifted. Missed the 4 to 3 and hit 1. Pistons came out the fenders. Some times "That sucked" is about as big of an understatement as you can come up with.

*Edit*
BTW Sav, my wife says "Ya, Those Wheels!"

I have two rides a 2001 Bullitt Mustang #292 pretty much stock right now because I've been spending all my hotrod money on my truck. A 1991, 4x4, F350, that I put a 6BTA Cummins diesel in.

Neither one of them is practical but they are both a blast to drive in their own way.

This is the dream car. Now I just need to win the lotto.

Yeah, I prefer the Pony package grille myself, I took it over a used GT when I got it new last year. It was either the Pony, a used GT with over 30K already on the clock, or wait 3 months for a new GT. I took the Pony.

Now Im slowly turning into a reborn '69 Mach 1.

I was gonna go Boss 302 since its more tuned for handling than top speed, but I always wanted an old Mach, so it won out in the end.

Eventually, as the pennies trickle in, my project Trans Am will look more like this.

Fun thread!

Read every post!

Wife drives 04 Durango...kid hauler.

I drive 04 HEMI Ram Quad cab. Cool air intake, magnaflow, superchip programmer.

Our sunday driver is a 79 Corvette L82 that my wife owned when we met.
It only has 47k miles now just replaced the carpet and had it chemical stripped and repainted it's original red.

In my single days I owned (one at a time) one of every Datsun/Nissan Z car ever made except the 260Z and the current 350Z.

Really diggin the new Mustangs but can't afford an additional ride and need my truck.

My true toy is my Hydra-sports 212 Center console with a Yamaha 150 Four Stroke.

2003 Saab 9-3 Aero convertible, charcoal (hated this car soooo much)
1997 Ford Explorer, white (meh)
2002 Nissan Frontier (major piece of S&$t)
1996 Ford Explorer, white (meh))

My wife's got an '07 Suburban we use to pull the boat and for road trips. It's a freaking bus but comfortable as heck.

My current project is a 1973 MGB convertible, down to the bones in my garage getting primered (too hot to work on it right now).
Recent project sold last year was a 1973 Jensen Interceptor. Miss that beast.
