Default Finally got a Mustang!!!

I brought her home last night. Nothing like a 70 mile drive at night in rain and fog, but man it was worth it. Waking up this morning and seeing the LX in the driveway was a thing of beauty. I can't wait to get it registered and hit the streets this weekend!!! I've already got a cruise lined up with a buddy that finished restoring his 78 Camaro so it should be a good time.

Thanks, the only downside is that snow is coming so I've got it just in time to store it. I should be able to put a few hundred miles on it until they roll the salt out.

I'll try and get some pics up this weekend, it needs a good buffing but still looks great, and I'll get my sig together. It's a 93 LX 5.0, 5sp, just flipped 100k, bright red with all black interior, sunroof, no rust or rot, mint condition. Only has a few mods done to it, it has a cold air intake, short throw shifter, high flow cats w/ flowmasters, 180 degree thermostat. First time I've driven a car with a short throw and damn am I addicted. My old 96 Camaro had a throw and a half on it, this thing just hits the gears perfect. I can't even focus at work right now, I might have to blow off and go register it NOW!!!
