I’m new here but not to vintage Mustangs. I’ve owned 2 and my husband had one (a 65 fastback). My current Mustang is a 66 Tahoe Turquoise coupe. I’ve owned it since 1996 and drove it daily for the first 6 years or so. Now it’s mostly a garage queen and comes out on sunny days and to go to car shows (also mostly on sunny days). It’s currently in the shop having the trunk carpeted and new paint. We’ve had some work done on it recently. We put a new interior in it (turquoise and white pony) and had some suspension work done. We had larger sway bars, monte carlo bars and Koni shocks put on it. We also lowered it so it handles really well now. It has an Edelbrock 4bbl, stainless tri-y headers and stainless exhaust with turned down tips. I also have homelink on my visor to open the driveway gate and the garage door. My husband is very proud of that set up. He bought the parts and got them to work as a surprise gift for me. It’s a great little car. Runs great and very reliable. Looks good, too.
It looks like this is the only pic I have on this computer. I’ll have to check my home computer and post more later.

It is a clean car. When we bought it 15 years ago, we pretty much paid top dollar for it but it's been worth every penny. We've never done a ground up restore on it, but you'd never know it to look at it. I don't do the big indoor shows and have never really cleaned underneath. Mostly it just get wiped a bit when we're working on it and it doesn't look bad at all under there. I've always been really happy with this car.
