That car was killed... It's like screaming ricer.

But check out 2008 Boss Mustang... That's nice... . But it never cuts the classic 67' Mustang... that's godly. Or the late 60s Stingray!

Default Re: Very Cool Machine!

an elderly lady gave me her '68 (coupe unfortunately) last summer, still haven't had a chance to work on it, but it rolled out from under a tarp in her yard after 37 years of being parked. Her granddaughter drove it for a year, was afraid of it, (was a 302) then had a friend put in a little Plymouth engine, then parked it in the yard...
SO
my dad found a 302 that has been sitting on an engine rack since the day it was "unpackaged improperly" and my grandpa decided to "liberate it" from\m the ford motor co.

needless to say the entire interior is molded, and it's an automatic...
already got a B&M slap stick for it off ebay, now i just need some time...

by the way my dad took a few pics of a GT500 he got to test drive, (given his work he has good relations with a local ford dealership) and he was really impressed, but wished the inside looked a bit more original as well.
i'll post them if i manage to find them.

Still can't get that link to work...

I was leaving today to go run an errand, and I'm pulling away, and this 9 or 10 year old kid yells, "NICE CAR!". I stopped, I'm like, "Huh?". I backed up, and this kid starts telling me how cool my car looks, and is asking me where I got it.

Stuff like that warms the heart, when even the not-old-enough-to-drive set appreciates the Mustang.



If it's not fixed, then don't broke it!

It's a nice looking car. Although I'd rather have a nice comp and case over a nice car, car's get me from point A to B to Joker's house, so nyah!

I enjoy my 454 but luckily my daily driving is only 12 miles round trip per day, so a gallon a day, lasts me just under 40 days if I stretch it







Thanks HL and Corsair!

Yeah, about that... Lol.

I've become a car fanatic these past few months. That's why my attendance here is really dwindling. I think I've posted 5 times in the past two weeks here.

Ricer is souped up visuals but nothing under the hood. This doesn't scream ricer.

Wow, really, what was I thinking when I posted that. I guess I just saw an airplane CF wing and called it a ricer.

So, that's like the only ricer element. But I don't like how visual the radiator is.
