These look great together. You can sure see where the 05 grill and fogs come from, can't you? Congrats on two classics!!

I love the lime!!! Vintage color. I almost bought one this weekend in Delray. It did not have side air bags nor IUP, but the same look as yours. What are your plans for the car? Leaving it stock, Shelby, or something modern? I will be ordering mine at the beginning of the year. You should bring it to the Fri night car show at Lowes. It starts (every Fri night) at 6pm till.... I would love to see it. I bet everyone would be standing around your car, and there are several REALLY nice ones there every week.

Lowes in Boynton or Royal PB? Of course, this Friday, I'll have it in Pennsylvania for Turkey Day. I'll definately bring it by next week. I should get my Zaino and a few coats on by then!
I am trying for the retro/modern look. I would like to get the vertical pieces below the front bumper painted as well as the mirrors. I am interested in a different hood with some sort of scoop-unsure yet. Thought about ghost stripes, thought they would take away from the retro look. Reluctant about modifying the motor-new model year and all. I may just wait a yr or 2 to see if any bugs show up. Other than that, I love it.

441/Southern... I'll make a mental note for the following Fri. Unsure what I would want to do as well. I would like to add a few things for looks and consider a S/C, but not until the 3/36 runs out. Also wait to see what Steeda and/or Kenne Bell do w/ theirs and how the engines are holding up to a power adder.

I'm new to the S-charger scene. So far, it seems the Whipple is the one to have, according to posts on this forum. I'll probably wait for the 3/36 to run it's duration as well, undecided.

Nice side to side pics.
That pic makes me wish the 05 had a wider grille. Fogs were never the problem.

Is the wheel track on the older Mustang wider than the 05?

What I love about the 2005 Mustang is you can park it next to any 64-70 car and see the influences from every year.

Awesome Lime is such a cool color, good choice. I have to say that I am really envious. The '69 is one of my favorites. The pic with noses is now my desktop, thanks!!!!
