Default New Mustang, YUCK!

I actually think this years mustang is the best design they have come out with in awhile. But I agree the late 80's to early 90's were the coolest. The new ones motors are not as beefy as before. I tell you what though i have driven a 99 cobra and wow was that thing a blast!

Bubba, the resale of those 87-93 stangs amazes me. The guy I bought the Bullitt from had a '91GT sitting next to it. It needed a new drivers fender and a hood, and he was still asking $4800 for it. When I went by his house last night, it was sold. A real clean GT still bring $7500 which is what I gave for the '01 Bullitt with 27,000 miles on it.

For some reason I can't load pictures up onto my photo page. Here is a link to the pics:

Picture page

The pics of the Bullitt are on there along with pics of my CBR1000RR, and the asphalt drag bike that is in progress. Let me know what you think.

Alky, you have too many cool toys man. I do like the Mustang though, kinda has the sleeper look to it. Did you ever get my E-Mail about the R parts?

Thanks. I also think I have too many everytime I make a payment on one.

The sleeper look was the idea behind the Bullitt's. They used V6 bumpers, decklid, no spoiler, "plain" wheels, etc. The sidescopes and ground effects are special for the Bullitt as well as the upper quarter panel. Look at a regular GT and the little side rear glass comes down and back on all other mustangs, but comes forward on the Bullitts. Ford opted to upgrade the GT's standard parts with a FRPP/Motorsport intake, twin blade throttlebody, different computer, factory Borla exhaust with aluminum exhaust tips, bigger rotors, better Brembo red powdercoated calipers, heavier springs, Tokico shocks/struts, bigger swaybars, Tremec 3650 tranny (heavier duty than the GT's 3550), etc. The gauges and seat stitching look like it came from a 60's mustang and the aluminum shift **** and ring, door sill plates, door lock *****, and aluminum pedals were also factory added parts.

I got your email but was waiting to hear if you needed both brackets or which side. It will be this weekend when I am able to get them pulled off. I thought your price was a little on the high side also. They aren't worth $25 for a few little odds and ends. Is there anything big you need off of it? If you just need the little parts, give me $10 to cover shipping.

I think they look pretty nice. Not practical for me though.

Since my favorite year mustang is '70, (my first car and still own it) I love the new design of the mustang. That 70 mustang of mine has been sitting over 20 yrs now. As you can see from my sig, I have a hard time parting with vehicles.
