Default Let's Get To Know Our Fellow 5.0 Owners

Thought it would be cool to start a thread like this since I don't believe we have done one in this section in sometime and they generally seem to be well received.

Tell us how old you are, what you do, where you live and what you drive.

I'll start......

I'm 24 years old and I'm a full time Graduate Student at SDSU. I'll also be teaching undergrad Financial Accounting there in the Fall. I live in Pacific Beach which is technically in the city of San Diego although I'm originally from the SF Bay Area.

I drive an '83 GT Vert, but at the moment it's up north parked in my parents garage. No way I would park out on the street, just a few blocks from the beach. Much too much riff-raff.

I am a 21 Korean dude that is currently certified to work on Aircraft structures. I am hopefully finishing up my powerplant tests tomorrow so I can get a job and feed the money pit. I reside in Memphis Tennessee.

I am working on an 87 Mustang GT and I drive a 00 S10. My goal for the Mustang is to get it running smooth and getting lookin good before I start the major build.

I'm 26 years old. I'm currently working in a shop as an Automotive Repair Technician. I'll be going to college in the fall at CCRI to start working on a degree in networking. I'm a E-3 in the US Army, and a member of the RI National Guard. I drive a 2000 Chevy S10, and own a 1994 Cobra coupe with a broken ass 347.

I'm seriously debating going full time active army, and moving to Texas.

I am 18 and just graduated CDA highschool. I am going to NCTC to get my basics done and go from there to a major university(unknown right now). I work part time at Discount Tire. I bought my red 95 GT when I was 14 after I taught 3 years of basic piano lessons and saving every penny I earned. I bought it bone stock and worked for every part on it. I recently bought another 95 GT to be used as my DD. I just can't quit these Stangs!
