Very nice as always. Did you swap out your brakes to Cobra specs or did you just paint teh calipers?
I'd LOVE to have a Stang as a DD but there's no way I could do it here in Buffalo with the snow and all.
Hey...wait a minute...how do YOU do it being as you are in the Boston area?

It used to have the Cobra brakes on it. WHen it did, they were red up front so i painted the rear calipers red to match. Then i put the car for sale and wanted the brakes for my Fox (Brembo rotors and the larger 40mm piston calipers) so i took them off and put the stock brakes back on. Since the rears were red, i painted the front GT brakes red to match. I like it

Here's the old brake setup



I manage ok in the winter. As long as there isn't snow on the road i'll drive. ABS and T/C make it decent. If heavy snow is forecast i either take the day off from work or borrow a car. I've driven Mustangs in the winter since I was 16. It's manageable.

If I don't sell the car this winter i may get a set of snow tires for the spare set of wheels I have. Buddy of mine swears by them on his Mustang and drives it in the snow all the time. Last year i was driving a 4X4 durango on the highway doing 35MPH...and a GT with snow tires passed me on the left and just kept going like it was no big deal!
