    Need some good advice on buying a classic Stang

    golf, how easy was it to put that 8.8 w/POSI on your '66, and how much did it run you? Oh, and here is the '04 Sonic Blue before I turned it in. My Sonic Blue GT

    Need some good advice on buying a classic Stang

    Yes, my Sonic Blue GT with black leather and the shiney 5 spokes was absolutely gorgeous. I wish I hadn't had to give it up, but it was great while it lasted. Leasing to buy an '06 GT is definately an option I am considering, but I am afraid that between the lease payments and the high...

    Need some good advice on buying a classic Stang

    Maybe true, but the scariest (and stupidest) driving experience I've ever had was trying to keep up (I didn't know the way at all) with 4 girls in a focus on a busy highway into Detroit going to watch my HS soccer team play in the state finals. They were basket weaving at 90-100mph, and when a...

    Need some good advice on buying a classic Stang

    Thanks. Any idea how much it would cost to put posi on it? And I forgot one major thing, how much is insurance going to run on a car like that? I'll be 19 in a week with no points on my license. ballpark estimates on these two prices would be just fine. :nice:

    Car Craft w/ Boss 429?

    does anyone know which issue of Car Craft has the slightly modded Boss 429 that ran in the mid/high 12s? I looked at a Car Craft archive and they have Boss 9s in three issues, but naturally I have no idea which one is the one I'm looking for. '70 Dec. 1986 '69 August 1988 '69...

    Need some good advice on buying a classic Stang

    I have been seriously looking at buying a classic Mustang, as it is in all honesty my dream car. Even though I don't plan on purchasing one for about another year or two, I would like to be well informed when the time comes. My predicament is that I would love to have the big block 429, but...

    One less competing for new Stang.....

    My grandfather was diagnosed with cancer when he was just over 60 and given only a few years to live. He is now 82, and has not only survived his origional cancer, but skin and prostate cancer as well. It IS possible to win the fight, so keep fighting, and good luck to you.

    The Complaint Department

    as for the origional 2 questions, as far as I know, rear fuel doors are illegal for safety purposes, and yes 3rd taillights are manditory. Also, the price issue isnt a fallacy, my dad is one of those exec. bean counters who dealt with the idea of the IRS on the Mustang. It went from standard...

    The Complaint Department

    I find it amazing that its the first time in what, 25 years that the mustang has gotten a new chassis (boasting 100% rigidity increase over the old I might add), plus its being boosted to 300hp and being given a much better quality interior, and yet people still have enough to complain about to...

    05' Mustang weight

    It is said to be within 1% of the current weight. (I think that is what C&D had) I doubt that is right, a Lincoln LS weighs 3600 pounds and something would have to be seriously wrong for the new stang to weigh the same as an LS.

    Why I'll wait for the SVT Mustang

    Origionally IRS was supposed to be standard on the '05, but production costs became a problem so they were then toying with the idea of making it optional, and in the end they just cut it out all together. I wouldn't be too surprised if a few years after the '05s release there will be an IRS...

    Wingless GT pics

    how could anyone refer to that wing as a "gawky, J.C. Whitney-looking wing." Its not like they used a Lancer Evo wing... It doesnt NEED a wing to speak "power," but I think it looks nice either way, and to each his own.

    Ugh... Makes me sick.

    I have never once seen anyone quoting 500hp for the '06 Cobra, only "a substantial increase from the current Cobra's 390 HP" in C&D and I believe "Well over 400" in another article. Neither implies anything near 500hp. And when imagning the '06 Cobra competing with an M3, remember its...

    HP/TQ Graph for the new SOHC (3) Valve 4.6...

    Vipers and Corvettes are little more pricey than Mustangs so I would hope they put that extra cost to some use. And btw, dropping the IRS was completely a cost issue, the car was just too expensive to make w/o a huge price hike, pleasing drag racers was just a bonus.
