How many classic owners have a newer stang?

  • Sponsors (?)


My Azure blue '03 Mach 1 has been my daily transportation for the past three years. Before that, my '90 5.0L GT was my daily transportation for a number of years. From '82-'89, my '68 was my high school ride and daily driver for 7 years.

I've had other Mustangs, but I still currently own all three of these:

I hope this doesn't sound insulting, but your '68 looks just as good in that dark primer as it does in red. :nice: If it wasn't for my '68's sound(and perhaps quickness), most would probably assume it was just a beater. Then again, you know what they say about primered Mustangs......;)

Aside from the multiple money pits I have, I'm also looking for either a Pinto or an early '70s Capri to do a 2.3T or Duratec turbo swap on. :D

No offense taken. In reality, my '68 has never been painted red. It was Seafoam Green from the factory. At the time the picture of my '68 was taken and put on the start page of my website, it actually looked like this; http://ultrastang.com/Images/Scanned/01-s.jpg

The "red" version was a Photoshop enhancement just to see what it would look like if it was that color.

I was still 15 when I bought my '68 (1982). It was just a $1,000 dollar beater and 14 years old when I got it. But, I always saw the potential that existed in it for it to be a really nice car someday....

Whenever the time comes to put a topcoat on it, I'll probably paint it blue.

I own a 2002 V6 Mustang and a 2002 Mustang GT. I love the 99-04 body style the best.

There are SO many things you can do with the new edge body style. Shaker, chin spoiler, grille delete, Roush side exhaust... the list goes on.
But when I had my '01 V6, my roommate bought a '94 V6, and while we were doing an engine swap on his car I realized that stock vs. stock his car looked a little better. Maybe I was just sick of the new edge. I just wish there were as many things you could add to the older cars to make them look better, but there aren't much, probably better for my wallet that way.
After driving a new edge for 4 years, and feeling the doors on an older SN, the new edge doors seem much more solid.:shrug: Just a weird thing I noticed.

I really like all the cars from '94-'04, but the '99+2000's are my least favorite. The spoilers and headlights are just ugly. Give me a real 35th Anniversary package car and I could even forget those things though.
