Hello All,
My name is Rob. I am a 58 year retired engineer. On Monday, Nov 6, 2017 I bought my third Mustang. In the mid 1980s I bought a 1969 MACH I with a 428 Cobra Jet and 4 speed manual. It was perfect and I am very disappointed I didn't keep it. My next Mustang was a 2003 GT also with a manual transmission. I sold it because my kids were going off to college. My third is a white 2017 GT also with a manual transmission. I am putting blue GT500 stripes on it very soon. I am looking at cold air intakes and considering changing the springs. I also love Mini Coopers. I look forward to spending time on this forum. Rob

Long story, but I once bought a '67 GT-500 Shelby which didn't run but very poorly, off a used car lot for $700m (!!). It had the 428 with dual 4-bbls. Big oval air cleaner housing made of aluminum with a snake embossed on top. My wife feared I would kill myself in it, so I sold it. Another of life's big mistakes!

Welcome. My favorite is in your list -- 1969 Mach 1 with 428 Cobra Jet. I've always wanted one in blue with the gold stripes
