    If anybody is still out there, they announced today ALL THREE 93 COBRAS will be re-released next summer and are available for pre-order as of today. I picked up the red & black since I needed them, and 10 teals to re-sell to all the clowns who miss out again. Here's the link, go get 'em...

    Woah!! Cup Holders! Have You All Seen This

    Try the stuff at the auto parts store. I repeat, the difference between dye and paint will make or break your project.

    Woah!! Cup Holders! Have You All Seen This

    I can't recall the details, but the interior PAINT and interior DYE are different. If I had to guess right now, I think the dye comes out more dull. I have the burgundy/scarlet interior in mine and, if you need, I can try to find an old can of (whatever I used, from LMR/50 Resto) in the...

    Mod auto transmission into auto-manual style

    I've got a full manual valve body in mine, with OD/lockup on a switch. I had it installed with a fully built transmission though, so I have no input on installing the VB itself. I did however install it along w/the modulator as mentioned above, and whatever else it came with (I can't remember...

    Leather Seat Repair Southeastern Michigan

    I had my top done by an interior/upholstery shop in Plymouth if that's close enough?

    I always thought about making a custom one, even having one made by a customizer who replicates everything on your car, but never got around to either. Forgot about it until you mentioned it but maybe will put it back on the radar. I'd love a T-Top or Saleen. The Saleen would be sell out in no...

    Yeah I'm skipping that one. I only have 3 of their law enforcement cars; don't really care for them and there are too many at this point. I do want to get the other 93 LEs, though!

    The Married...With Children car's pics are up. It's as expected.

    Like 5L5, my teal Cobra isn't going anywhere. I probably said it here before, but my wife got it for my birthday when we began dating so it's special. I might sell my Cobra R if they got up to $600+ though, then just replace it with 5 new ones :rlaugh: I want to get the green Cobra drag car. A...

    What's Your Daily Driver?

    Aww, man. Well if so then I'd eventually step up to the CTS-V :nice:

    What's Your Daily Driver?

    Yeah, the front is pretty close. I always wanted a 2nd gen. CTS-V but couldn't decide on the less-practical coupe (I was already replacing a coupe) or the less-aggressive looking sedan. When the ATS-V came out it was the perfect blend...and just as fast as the prior-gen. CTS-V. Win/win! May be...

    What's Your Daily Driver?

    Nice. I've wanted one around that generation but didn't pull the trigger until they came out with the ATS-V. This isn't mine, but same thing:

    Must Admit

    When I take it out for the first time each year, I get that feeling for the first ride or two. Then I'm ready to go! But I don't drive it too hard anyway, especially compared to how it seems most Mustang owners do.

    I've had a couple blue Mach 1s over the years. When the prices skyrocket I used to sell mine, then would wait to find a nice deal on another. I'd put the difference into another model so I could grow my collection "organically" and not feel bad. Haven't bothered considering that in a few years...

    GMP diecast no longer, new name.

    I recognize and remember the gray street Cobra, I was just wondering if this "King Snake" is an actual car or if that was the best marketing idea they could come up with on their own. Because I would think they could have done better :rlaugh: I like the parachute & wheelie bar, I'll definitely...

    Hmmm... Kinda cool, colors are neat, but those wheels are hideous. Is this one based on an old drag car or something?

    Which Auto Transmission

    I had a 4R70W with a full manual valve body built. It was rated and tested at around 800HP which is far more than I'll ever need. It can be driven as easy-going as a stocker or as hard-shifting as you want. Of course, you can get an automatic valve body or one that allows it to be electronically...

    I didn't realize that was the color; that's pretty unique! I haven't gotten any new GMP/Acme models since my last post, but I have still been adding models from other brands.
