Cool

I went to a local car show today just to meet up with some other 2005-owners, and check out all the other sweet cars. I didn't go there with the intention of entering the judging (because there are a lot of awesome classics and comtemporary cars there), but it was free, so I signed up on a whim. I've never entered my car in a show before today. But, lo and behold, they gave me a trophy for "Best Daily Ride"... I was stunned. Chalk it up to beginner's luck. B)

Congrats, Don. That's what car shows are supposed to be about. Just having fun and not worrying about trophies. Now get that thing off the hood before you scratch it!

Congratulations on your win. Your car looks great, but what are "chase" taillights that you have listed in your mods?

Thanks, Lynell and Glen!

Glen... look at this website for a video showing the chase taillights (they are a little different than sequentials): http://www.meter4it.com/2005_Mustang.htm
