Those are some screwed up priorities you have there....

I'll second Jwog666 since he seems the only one who stayed on the topic. Other cars are great but looking for most improved, and it is one clean car

Just a reminder, you can not "nominate" yourself.
You can however post pictures in the hopes of being nominated.
Also, if you have already won in the same calendar year, you are not eligible.

So far we have

Coyote5
Timspony
Sleeper_GT

that have been nominated and seconded.

I'll play.

This past year my Mustangs have seen some pretty sweet upgrades. Some were unplanned and others were done because it was way overdue.

First my 02GT Convertible was the recipient of an upgraded power plant after my daughter toasted the SOHC. I pulled a nice, low mileage DOHC out of a 98 Mark VIII.



The spoiler was popped off by some well meaning good Samaritans who were pushing it out of traffic. Actually I have become a fan of the shave tail look. It has less of the Boy Racer look without the spoiler.

Here is a shot of the InTech in its new home. Being an avid Lincoln & Mustang fan it was a match made in heaven. I think whoever designed those CobraStar emblems hit a home run.




With a "new" engine in place, the interior really started to show her age. So I pulled a complete low mileage interior from a wreck that I have been storing in the attic for the last 8 years, dusted it off and put it in. Seats, steering wheel w/airbag, console and scuff plates. I ordered a new carpet from CJ and got rid of that god awful looking factory shift ****.

Yuck.


Yum.



The paint has some issues but all in all, the old girl is in a lot better shape than she was a year ago. A new transmission, engine and interior have given her a new lease on life. Before, I was toying around with getting a newer Mustang but now I think I'll stand pat.



As for the Fastback, after 20+ years I could no longer tolerate the 50 year old peg-legged 2.80 rear end so I installed a fresh 3.25 8" Trac Loc. I think it makes her rear end even more sexy.
