I had one of the old 2 bangers that I had for 25 years I used it around the shop moving cars around and moving other stuff. I sold it off last year and do I ever miss that thing. Even around the house it would come in handy. The only mod it had is I put a GM 1 wire alternator on it. I loved that old tractor but just didn't think I needed it when I retired.

Nice! another Chevy player on the field. Good to see you join the pack. We're all on the same team anyways, but you'll be very happy with the stang. I'm also diehard chevy, but the 5.0 gives me a chill every time I start the car and drive it. very distinctive to say the least, and it's a lethal adversary on the street. I did the same thing as you not long ago, and it's been one hell of a ride since then. Enjoy!
BTW: Welcome to the forums, and one of the best sections to be in for that matter. There's alot of really nice guys on this board, and quite of few of them that have a wealth of knowledge if you ever run into any problems.
