Today I found an old pic of my '88 taken the day we bought it new in December 1988. So, I gathered a few pics together to show some of the changes that have taken place over the years. It stayed pretty much stock until 2000 or so.
Dec 1988 Brand New "Pardon the wife" It was her daily driver for years. lol
2002 out for its first car show after a major renovation. Note the era correct big wing, Cobra R's and LX taillights.
2006 Beating the fool out of it at Little Talladega with my newly installed '93 cobra replica's. (They make you remove the centercaps to run on that track)
And, today.
We've had alot of fun with this car over the years.

I remember her looking at it sitting in the garage shortly after we first met, wondering what that thing was for. As I told her.. Women come and go, but the car's still here. But I also remember the first time we went for a ride with the top down, and the "o.k. I get it" look on her face. It's pretty much when I knew she was a keeper.. (the wife.. not the car.. we knew the car was a keeper..)
back then. Bought my 87 vert new and had it until 2002. Found it again last year and offered to buy it from the now 3rd owner- They guy I sold it to in 2002 sold it to him on Evay for around $7k. Not only did the guy hack it up, but then tried to say he needed $16k if I wanted to buy it. Three months after he bought it. lol He was spouting off all these things done to the car which I did before he owned it. When I asked him specifics about the car, he had no clue. I told him for $16k he can keep it and Karma is a bitch.
