    Tri-Bar and Pony

    I can't argue with ya there, the GT from the concept was pretty slick, as well as the rear emblem. I just don't think this one's ugly is all. If given the choice between the two....that's hard to say. I would probably go with the concept GT and other emblems from the concept.

    1968 Mustang GT fender emblems found here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4554814952 2005 GT emblem (for close comparison) I don't know what you mean by ugly. I like the emblem. It also has a nice classic look to it (as can be seen with the above comparison)

    Cool Quote From Ticketing Officer

    In my first car, a 1980 Datsun 510 4door hatchback. I think there was more bondo and rust on it than steel. The cop stopped me and told me "son, I don't think this car is safe to travel at those speeds" ... I was doing 80.

    Best Driving Music?

    I actually put together a soundtrack for my baby. (it was SOMETHING to do while I waited 4 mos. for it to arrive!) All of which make me want to drive fast. Here's the album cover (Keep in mind it's a black car with charcoal interior, and I named her Betty, of course). Very Dangerous CD...

    Good tint shops in the Houston area?

    Excelent! Thanks much. It appears that they have a "Pinnacle" Series now that seems to be rather similar to the Huper Optic. I'll lprobably go with that, I'll have to let you know how it turns out. (yes, my baby did finally arrive last Friday, I havn't officially announced yet because I don't...

    Did you find a good place Blk05Retro? I also live in the Houston area and am having a hard time finding a place.

    Finally!!!

    This may sound stupid, and please forgive me if it is. I had the same difficulty when I test drove one, but found that instead of reaching over my shoulder if I just reached back behind me like I was trying to get into my back pocket that I could grab the bottom of the belt instead of the top...

    Who owns an 05 as their first Ford/Mustang?

    I've owned two Fords before, a 63 Falcon convertable (still have it) and a very decrepid old '84 Bronco II that i had in college. Just before graduation from college I flew to Houston for a job interview. When I flew home with the job I immediately got on the internet and started searching...

    adding redline water wetter

    a lot of this may depend on where you live. (warning, science lesson approaching) I live in Houston, without antifreeze/antiboil in my car in the summer the coolant would boil off slowly until there was not enough liquid in the motor to keep it cool, then it would begin to boil off very...

    Does Your Car Have A Twin?

    About a month after I ordered mine, I saw an almost exact copy (different rims) at work. I talked to the guy, he'd ordered his in October and had just got it. I'll have to get started on mods early! :nice:

    Thanks all. Actually window tinting is one of the early mods I intend on doing. I'd already jotted down Huper Optic as one to check on. Also I like the look of louvres; a bit retro, a bit tough, would look slick on a black car, and definately will keep the sun out of the rear window...

    Mustang makes top three list of most hated cars on BMW M3 forum...

    You can't honestly compare European cars to American cars in this way. European cars were designed by and for Europeans! They have narrower roads, and far FAR higher gas prices. I can't say that all of Europe has windier, hillier roads for handling needs than the U.S. but I can say that most...

    Hiya everybody, I've been reading this board for a few weeks, and finally registered. My "Black Betty" starts rolling down the assembly line tomorrow! I'm very excited. I'll want to do some mods to it, a little at a time here and there. Mostly I've been hunting for tough looking wheels...

    Japanese Mustang!!!

    Actually this hasn't been a problem in a number of years. Back in the late 70's and 80's the big 3 arrogantly figured that they were untouchable and that they pretty much could do whatever they wanted. During this time, the Japanese automakers were instituing the very system that ExCon is...
