Last Saturday was one of the rare occasions where all three of them were clean at he same time, so I thought I’d take a couple of snaps.
The ’92 is the bad boy and fastest of the bunch. I bought it new and began modifying it the same week. Since it’s a limited Edition, I haven't modified anything on the outside, and I’ve kept all the original parts to return it to stock if I ever have the desire...
I’ve had the ’65 for three years now. It’s a restored original rust free GT, that came from the Carolinas. I worked on it for two winters redoing the mechanicals in preperation for the Mustangs 40th anniversary in Nashville last spring. I drove it the 2500 miles there and back with no problems. It's great fun to drive.
Of course no need to tell you how good the ‘05s are…
Paul

Awesome.
Love the '65.
Only 39 more to go and you have all the years. 40 if you include the '06.

Thanks guys, I had second thoughts after I posted the picture, I felt that it might come across as braggy. I know that I am a fortunate man to have been in a position to pick them up over the years. Never had kids, so that left a little more disposable income I guess...
The '05 is the everyday one that I use for work, and the other two are for fun. The '65 really only gets driven to car shows and Mustang club events, it's not really the type of car that you can leave parked in the street
Here is a better pic of it from a show last summer.

That's a freakin' nice collection!

Is the interior of the '92 white leather? That's really sweet looking... Of course it goes without saying that the '65 and '05 are also awesome.
