Hello all.
First know that I am old (keep your Mustang of my grass you young whippersnapper).

The first car that I purchased was a 1965 fastback V8 Mustang. That was in 1965. In 1968 I took mine in for a repair and saw a Shelby GT 350 sitting in the show room. I traded my 1965 and drove the Shelby home.

I traded the Shelby in for a (I think) a 1972 Mach 1.

I have owned 4 or five Mustangs, three Vettes and other sports cars.
Lately I have been driving an SUV. Got tired of it and bought a lightly used 2013 GT. Has the cloth interior, but I got a good deal and it suits my elderly needs. Oh - it is a six speed. I missed rowing through the gears.

I look forward to talking to you folks about Mustangs. I am sure I will learn a lot.
Mike

Dag Nabit! I just turned 55 and own a 2012 3.7 and could not be happier, I owned a 67 Camaro that could not hold a candle to this pony! It had a 327 w/ powerglide on the column.
