Not quite finished. It goes in for exhaust, subframe connectors, and traction bars next week. Then the interior to finish it off. I already re-covered the seats. They're ready to drop in. hookedtrout 08/06/2005, 03:51 PM Sounds like someone's having way too much fun!! Nice! ;) Hook Mustanger 08/08/2005, 07:52 AM Joe, Are any of these Mustangs going to be a daily driver for you?? Looks like quite a collection you're amassing, do you have enough room in your stable?? ;) joedls 08/08/2005, 08:49 AM Joe, Are any of these Mustangs going to be a daily driver for you?? Looks like quite a collection you're amassing, do you have enough room in your stable?? ;) No, I don't plan to drive any of the cars more than 2 or 3 times a week. I have an 03 Explorer Sport Trac for my daily driver. I probably won't hang on to the Mach 1 for long. The other two I intend to keep. joedls 08/20/2005, 12:24 AM Got the subframe connectors, traction bars, and exhaust done. joedls 08/20/2005, 09:22 PM Just got her home. I'm in the home stretch now. joedls 08/20/2005, 09:23 PM Another one. joedls 08/20/2005, 09:24 PM Last one. hookedtrout 08/21/2005, 12:07 PM Looking very nice. One thing I would suggest and it may just be the flash of the camera but the grill would look much better if it was black behind it so as to highlight the grill and take away from the distraction of the cooler and stuff behind. Looks dang nice in my opinion, and I bet it's a ton of fun. Hook joedls 08/21/2005, 01:09 PM Looking very nice.

Looks dang nice in my opinion, and I bet it's a ton of fun. Hook It's the flash of the camera and the fact that I was taking the pic as I squatted down level with the grill. You don't notice everything behind the grill unless you are at that level. I still have to complete the interior, have the side scoops installed, and pick out my wheel and tire combo. But you're right. it's a ton of fun ;D joedls 01/07/2006, 08:04 PM I entered my convertible in the 4th round of the contest that Don won 2 car covers in. It won the Musclecar category. I found it very interesting that all four rounds had a Mustang winner in the Musclecar category. http://www.autogeek.com/ag_Covercraft.asp Unregistered 01/07/2006, 10:20 PM The mustand looks great, but come on be real ,the Challenger is the best looking car that i have seen in a long time. An STR8 convertable.....hint hint dodge ,WOW it would kill the mustang. Sorry pony people you are still in last place! 390cs68rcode 01/07/2006, 10:28 PM opinions are like a$$%$^&*, everyone has got one. personally, new cars don't really do it like old cars do for me. 68gt390 01/07/2006, 10:51 PM Congratulations Joe. Very nice looking Stang. And your right about a Mustang taking all four rounds in Muscle Car. That's pretty neat. I received my first car cover yesterday and they are pretty nice. Again, congrats Joe. Don 68gt390 01/07/2006, 10:55 PM opinions are like a$$%$^&*, everyone has got one. personally, new cars don't really do it like old cars do for me. Your absolutely correct. Only some have two, 1 they use in private and 1 they show to the rest of the world and it sits on their shoulders.

Maybe people there will want to hear your rantings. This happens to be a Mustang site, if you have`nt noticed by now. I take it that you are young and immature. Why else would you be so arrogant? 68gt390 01/07/2006, 11:03 PM Rhonda; Your right online. Evidently this is his only way of getting attention. I tend to think some where during birth he got dropped on his head. Don :grin: Mustanglvr 01/07/2006, 11:07 PM Rhonda; Your right online. Evidently this is his only way of getting attention.

I feel that my car is in very good company. And, as far as the Mopar guy goes, I'd put any of my Mustangs up against whatever the hell he was talking about. It has made such an impression on me that I can't even remember the name. Mosesatm 01/08/2006, 01:06 PM Wow, you guys are brutal. I guess I should have posted my original (deleted) response to the guy! 68gt390 01/08/2006, 03:09 PM Wow, you guys are brutal. I guess I should have posted my original (deleted) response to the guy! Arlie; That's not brutal. Read the post I put under the following thread: 2007 Dodge Challenger Now that's brutal. Don joedls 01/08/2006, 05:04 PM Wow, you guys are brutal. I guess I should have posted my original (deleted) response to the guy! I tried to be nice.:icon_evil Mustanglvr 01/09/2006, 11:32 AM Looks like he left. I could tell since he did`nt bother to register, that he was`nt going to be around long. He had a lot of nerve though, I`ll give him that. 390cs68rcode 01/09/2006, 01:12 PM we need to eliminate the ability to not be registered and respond to threads or this kind of thing will happen more often. I know we are doing this for people who are from the old site, but I think it is time. Mosesatm 01/09/2006, 03:21 PM What do you think Jon, can we flip that switch? joedls 01/09/2006, 03:41 PM What do you think Jon, can we flip that switch? I would vote for that. Mustanglvr 01/09/2006, 03:45 PM Me too. How about a poll? joedls 02/27/2006, 11:23 PM Just got new shoes for my convertible. Mustanger 02/28/2006, 09:25 AM Just got new shoes for my convertible. Cool ... what tires and rims are those exactly? joedls 02/28/2006, 09:39 AM 17" Coys with Nexen N300 tires. 235 45 in back and 225 45 in front. I got a great deal on them at the San Diego Swap Meet this weekend. |
