Jim nice pics.

I could have without seeing the rims on the first mustang though

Looks like it was a good time.
I contemplated going but after driving all Saturday I really didn't want to drive another few hours (1.5hr for me to get there). I even toyed with the idea of going to an auto-cross in Portland but that was even further away.

 

My wife didn't like the rims on the black 65 either but I didn't mind them. Not enough chrome for her.

 

The rims on that stang are pretty hideous!!!!!! Damn...

 

Dan there weren't any focus there maybe next year you could enter the zx3 or the wagon.

 

Chrome or not, those things were bad.

 

Want to know what is kinda funny. I could probably get a little focus contingent to enter.

And

I could win "most rotted" with the wagon. I just need a bunch of mirrors to show the underside...

Also muscle car people tend to look down on the 4 cylinders. The 4 cylinders just a few short years ago, were the way of the future. But with the recent technological advances in the 310HP V6 @ 30mpg and 400HP V8 @ 20+ mpg that might be changing.

 

I guess your wife and I would not get along.

I'm not a huge fan of chrome...

 

Must be nice! 500HP V8 and 13 mpg's on the highway a tad lower at 9 mpg's in town driving.....I loose large % mpg's just sitting at a light. Good thing I don't rely on her for a commute to work every day...yikes!



I love chrome....there's just a limit before it gets tacky and rediculous! IMO!

 

What turns me off most with the 4 bannger performance crowd are the coffee can exhaust. That is the worst exhaust sound there is. But anything is better then electric.

 

Ken, your engine puts out 500hp? Your mileage doesn't seem that bad then considering the brick it has to push through the air and probably lack of extra gearing in the trans. Seems like the 97-2003 4.6/5.4 don't do a whole lot better and they are about half the power and more airodinamic.

 

Good morning Vermont and all visitors. Have a good hump day and stay dry.

 

Good Morning Vermont!

Happy Hump Day!

 

Good morning Steve.

 

Yeah man. Was built that way from the previous owner. I'd almost wish I had an overdrive or extra gears. It's the C6 3 speed transmission. Super fun to drive. Good thing I only put about 2-3k miles a year on her. Even that few miles is a lot of dough for fuel. But still fun!

 

You'll have to keep an eye out for a gear vendors od unit. Turn that 3 speed into a 6 speed.
