Mustang Owners/Restorers/Enthusiasts Thread!

Hey guys, i just thought that this would be a good time fo all you mustang guys and gals out there to show off your rides and chat about the other car in the garage, the mustang!!!!

heres mine, its a yellow 73 mach, 351 cleveland, c6 9 inch out back with 2.73's and it has a saddle interior. its a pretty rare car, lots wierd options. it was set up like a secretarys car, but for some odd reason, they didnt order a full lenght console.... go figure. noone will ever know the reason for that. it was owned by the same couple for about 20 years, it came from california. they even used it to tow their u-haul from cali on they way to ohio!!! it even had the hitch still on it when i got it!!!

i recently bought it back form the man i sold it to, who ran out of money to complete it.

odd, it took me 3 years, but i bought back my first car and i'm never gonna let it go again!!!!

ok enuff chit chat, here are the pics!







that was the car a few years ago, it sat pretty much like this, as is for a long time while the other owner did nothing!

now, the motor it out, the interior is stripped, i'm waiting on all the new metal i will need to finish the bodywork and it ~*should*~ be done for next spring!

i'll get new pics tomorrow after i get the glass out of the car.

I saw that last night -!! I didn't know an original existed, -when I saw the title listing I thought I was going to see the Nick Cage/Angelina Jolie flick.

It was cool seeing that whole era captured on film. All the cars of the era, the early computers, and man that Mustang took a beating :impatient

Anyway, I don't have an old one, but I do have a 2006 Black GT on a transport headed this way It should be here maybe Thur of next week (9/22). Now I know where to post the pics

cool, at least there are a few mustangers on here!!!

here is my favorite snapshot from the original GI60S:




it was a beauty, but it gave its life for one of the best chase movies of all time.

BTW, they only used ONE car for the entire filming, including both of the other cars seen before they steal the final car.
