For Sale: Acapulco Blue GT/CS 302 J-Code

Hi Everyone!
I have decided to sell one of my Specials. I have owned the car since June 2005. I wish I could hold onto it but I can’t right now. This is not a 100 point show car but is great as is for cruise nights, local shows or as a weekend or daily driver.

I'm posting it here for a few days first before putting it elsewhere.

Below are details on the car and at the bottom is a link to an online photo album. (Note: This weekend I’m going to try and get the car on ramps or jack stands to get some front end pictures and will add them.)

35,000 miles ago (not confirmed)

*If the slideshow link pictures look fuzzy or not clear, use the link below and go to the slideshow from there by using the button on the top right of the screen.
You can also try hitting "refresh" of F5 if they are fuzzy, that seems to correct it as well.
The pictures should be clear, not sure why that's happening, not happening on all PCs I tried though.

Thank you. I am excited. Should be on the FedEx truck next week and on my way.

Korey;
Welcome to the site. We'll have to try and hook-up next summer for a couple shows. I'm just west of Columbus, OH. Our mustang club is hosting an MCA National show (Jun 08) here in Columbus next year. We also have our all mustang show at Kreiger Ford here in Columbus every August. Sure would be nice to have another CS to show along with mine.


Don

That sounds good! I'll hopefully have it out on the road a lot next summer. You'll have to let me know where everything is going to happen at and I'll be there. I actually go to Delaware OH a lot over the summer to visit my gf's family.
