    sorry if already addressed, but anyone with sudden power loss?

    I thought I saw some tsb's about a retune of the older computers. I think they were on these forums, can't remember. It might be a bad tune on the computer. What happens if you turn TCS off?

    Retro Styling or is it just American Styling?

    Retro as the sig says. I think retro is bring back styling cues from a previous generation. The 05 has many cues from the late 60's early 70's models.

    Does this headgasket look blown to you? Just pulled the head off (PICS)

    First of all, it looks like you have had or having detonation problems looking at the pistons. The head wasn't a very clear picture when I zoomed in on it. In the picture with the #8 cylinder down, you can see light black streaks down the walls; it could be blowing by the rings. That would...

    Your Opinion on Window Tint?

    There is no noticeable tine from the factory. I would definitely get the tint, stay legal for your state. I would look for a tint that will provide a life time warranty just to cover any problem that might crop up. The late mustang build should already have the felt installed, mine did.

    A/C clicking?

    You can turn the A/C to high to reduce the time that it clicks on and off or you can just turn your A/C off and it won't happen. This happens on our 97 Explorer with the electronic A/C thermostat. A similar thermostat must be in these Mustangs.

    Worth the Wait?

    Allocation, allocation! It's all about dealer allocation. Priority doesn't mean a thing unless there are several orders in at that dealer. Some got their cars quicker then others did. It took mine from late January to a couple of weeks ago before I got mine. I had a priority 40. If the...

    2005 Mustang GT Stolen from Ford Dealership

    My wife was driving home from work one day and while sitting in traffic on a two lane road, a dealer employee raced down the road in a test vehicle the opposite direction and hit a Infinity. The Infinity ended up hitting my wife’s Explorer. This dealer employee was driving a customer’s vehicle...

    Good tint shops in the Houston area?

    I wend to Houston Tint, the link is above. They did a excellent job. I went with the Ultimate Series, which is their top of the line. They provide a life-time guarantee on any of the Formula One tints. They also install the clear bra, which I might get in the next couple of months.

    17.89 Quarter Mile

    Are you sure you did stop mid track for a coffee break. If this is your first time at the track, I would say you had a very bad reaction time. That coupled with starting in second and being easy on the shifts is what did it. Stand to the side and watch others at the light. If you see the...

    May be selling

    Man, I am sorry to hear that. A person's life is worth more then any car. I would think you could put it on Ebay and would get some pretty decent bidding going on. I'm not sure your time frame to sell, but you might do better parting it and selling the mod's individually. I would imagine...

    Some pics after Zaino

    Thats looks amazing. White is a difficult color to bring out the luster. Excellent job! Looks like you just poured the paint on before the pic. How can you post pic's instead of thumbnails.

    Putting some pic's up.

    1hot5.0, The black interior and top are all original. It was the combo I wanted and was extremely hard to find. I found it in late October of 95.

    Putting some pic's up.

    It looks good from a distance. The front has pepper spray from a 18-wheeler on a two lane highway. I have about 103K on her. I didn't drive her very much except on weekends for the first 6 years. Washed both cars and have Zaino on them.

    Putting some pic's up.

    BlueOvalStangGT, I guess I just like GT's. Back in 95, the Cobra was just to much in a vert. Also, you could only find Teal in the GT. I like the newer body style and decided to get that for 05. It nice seeing a 10 year difference.

    Putting some pic's up.

    Ya, that was the cheapest rim I could find to run my tires. The previous set MSW, got completed trashed on the right side when I hit a cinder block. Had to go cheap to put the down payment on the other. I would like to get some Saleen's eventually.
