    Whats in a name......

    When the car first made it's first auto show appearance, I went to my local ford dealership 3 times, before I could convince them to take 1000 deposit for the first shelby in Bakersfield to be sold to me at msrp. It is my plan to stop by in the next couple of weeks (buying a new house right...

    Mustang Plus Carpet Kit Is Junk!

    Well I've read page one and it seems to be pretty negative. That said, I've spent a pretty substantial amount of money with these guys and have uniformly gotten pretty good service and quality parts. I absolutely recognize that some of their prices are higher, and I have happily paid them...

    I ordered my g-force tranny last week, I was told there is a 2 to 3 week wait. Guys seemed nice and I've heard overall very positive things about their product. I've been nursing my beat up t5 for over a year now. I'll be sure and post my gforce experience shortly
