Yesterday... I finally joined the dark side and became a Ford owner... There's now a very pretty True blue 1996 4.6GT Convertable 5 speed in the garage in Fayetteville!!! And it's mine!!!!!!!
i can just see the tears welling up in your dad's eyes now.....he'll be so proud....and jealous too. plan on not seeing your car for a few days next time you go home for a visit.
actually since you are on a ford board, you are coming into the light it is when you buy a chevy that you join the darkside, like me with my soon to be new el camino
Welllllll.... let's just call it "Twilight" She's "sitting on both sides of the fence"; with the Stang in the garage and the Tink Truck -'02 Silverado 4x4- in the driveway (When she's in NC and not TDY in Virginia). Can't blame her; they're both very good rides. And no, Bryan, I'm not gonna steal the Mustang from her. I know what the car means to her; not just that it's a Mustang. If I can get a ride in it, good enough for me. Nowwwwwww...... if she'll let me drive it for a few miles....
Oh, By the Way, Trish! What do I always say? No not to you (That I got my gray hair from my oldest kid); but what do I always say to people who brag about their new rides on this Forum? Yeah, that's right; now it's your turn to be told
Posting for Trish: Here's her "new" '96 Mustang GT Convertible, mostly stock (welded-in flows, and now has a K&N and a Fidanza short throw shifter). The color is a '96 only color called Moonlight Blue
Thanks, AJ! I was about to post a link to your pics on the SMC webpage. I hadn't been over here since about 0800 our time; and saw the pics over there before I got here. Pssssstt! When you get a chance, you might want to update your sig line - about the Cobra's new engine.
Got it, Sig line updated, also I stand corrected on my specs, on further research Moonlight Blue was available on 1997 models also, but no other years under that name (02-03 True Metallic Blue is very very close however).
Took the car to the track here in Fayetteville... fastest time was a 15.38... not bad for a mostly stock 96 gt. New Mods as of this far: BBK cold air intake profesional products plenum (after some tweeking and adjustments... not the best products to start off with as a newbie) 70mm Throttle body stock wheels off of a 94 Cobra off label sumitomo 245s was gonna put on a maximum motorsports strut tower brace but its too tight for the cold air intake... we really need to ditch the 2:73 gears for some 3:55s or better, never went past 3rd gear at all goin down the track....
ummmm, her dad and her boyfriend are both participating in this thread. can't wait to see theie responses
Ahhhhhhhh, I'm gonna let "SSGT Torque" cover the that stuff; he's got the Armalite, I only have an M14 and a couple of 12 gauges and a .44 Mag Meanwhile, you want another picture? Here's one from a couple years ago..... RIGHT TO LEFT!: Cowgirl Tink on her double-bred 5th gen Man 'O War thoroughbred, Chance; SVTCobra306 on Mrs StangDreamin's Hancock Quarterhorse, Rascal; and some skinny old guy needing a shave and a haircut on his paranoid-schizophrenic Arabian, Dutch.
HA!! you must not hang around the classic thread often!! I'll hold dreamin back though so he doesn't btw dreamin, last time i heard you were good out to 4000 yrds with that .308 ?? speaking of dark side It pains me to tell you guys that I have been facilitating a ...ch....che...v... chevro.... I can't stand to say it! starts with chev and ends with rolet HA! seriously though, I've infected one of my buds enough to the point that we're now looking for a 67-69 camaro. it's a shame that hardly anyone my age knows anything about old cars, all it is is japaneeeeeeeeeeeee-neeeee-neeeeeee riceer crap.
