Hi everyone,

My name is Josh, I live in Detroit, MI and have owned my Mustang for a little over a year now. I'm a life long Mustang fan, and even collect Hot Wheels, Signs, Shirts, and Magazines. Anything to do with Mustangs, is something I collect or look for.

I love Ford, and the Mustang has always been my #1 favorite car. I'm just starting to modify my Mustang, and some of you may call it a ricer, but I'm going for more of a Grand Am, or Grand Touring look. Think Le Mans style cars. I haven't started the actually wrenching, but I'm in the process of buying and searching out parts I need.

Unfortunately, my baby (Who I've named Sally. I know, I know...) was backed into and the bumper cover has a nice hole and scratches all over it. Nonetheless, it doesn't take away from the overall beauty of her.

Onto the car itself; Its a 2006 Mustang GT, with the 281 V8. From what I'm told, it's a graphic prototype built at Dearborn in 2005 for one of the project designers at Ford. The guy I got it from bought it from is the designer. How much of it is true, I don't know as I have no paperwork, or COA. Cool story, nonetheless.

Now, here's some pics, and some pics of the day I brought her home. Enjoy!














With the new hood scoop

Thanks guys, I'm hoping to learn even more about the baddest car on the planet than I already do. So far, I've enjoyed looking at all the members cars, and some of the mods you guys come up with!

I'm hoping to get a 99-04 Mustang as well, and make a Cobra R with a turbocharged 302 and paint it like my GT.

Congrats on the car, haven't seen any with a yellow stripe and black car like yours. Looks good. Welcome to the site.
