I saw one JUST like this in a Lonestar parking lot in raleigh NC last week. Grey MCA V6 S197. I really like the C stripes on those cars. Caught my eye. Cool DD pickup.

Yea I remember. The guys on camaro5 still call me a lair or nuts when I tell them that. I don't plan to throw any money at this car. Luckily it already had a few mods when I picked it up.

Sweet!........

My favorite dealer around here (Sunset Ford) orders most (if not all) their mustangs with the optional gears.......even base models.
I test drove a base V6, auto, 3.31 car a couple years ago and.............. yeah!

They just dont want to accept that a V6 Stang is running what they are (or better in most cases). Lots of vids up on youtube if you ever feel like putting it in their faces, lol.

97 actually got rid of his and bought a work truck.

Yea, doubt we'll see him on here much anymore. His brother did get his old Fox back up and running though, so he should be popping in some.

Damnnnnnn that sucks. I wondered where he was.

Was that kind of a forced life choice type of deal? I get the feeling he didnt want to part with it.

He started his own business. Bought a Skid-steer Bobcat and needed a truck to pull it. Smart man, definitely made the right choice, imo. Hopefully business will take off and he can get back in a better, faster Stang before too long.
