Default Back into a Mustang.

I had a 73 Mach 1 (new) back in the 70s and became interested in Mustangs again over the past 5 years.I never bought one, because I was very happy with the cars I had during that time (96 Z-28, 03 Eclipse GT, 91 Eagle Talon TSi AWD). Meanwhile, my father bought a new 03 Mustang with the Pony Package back in Jan of 03.

Unfortunately, my father passed away suddenly and unexpectantlylast week and I will be taking his Mustang. I helped to convince my father that at 80 years old, he needed to treat himself to a Mustang. He enjoyed it tremendously during the past 5 years and was very proud of it. I even talked him into getting the fog lights put in.

I plan to keep the car, because it has a great deal of sentimental value to me.



Here are two pictures of the Mustang: One with my Z-28 and the other with my Eclipse GT.

That's a beautiful GT you have. I've never had a convertible, but if I did, black on black in a Mustang GT with a hood scoop would be my choice. Fabulous.[sm=signs007.gif]

I think the Pony Package in 03 was a somewhat limited run (similar to the Mach 1).

Once my father got the fog lights put in, he got a lot of stares from GT owners wondering what he had. I even noticed that someone in his neighborhood got the pony decals put on the side of her white GT.
