I have knocked off some mods off my list already. In one week i have put sequentail tail lights,.Painted calipers, Hood shocks, an Ipaq gps, painted and clearcoated Mustang kick plate and replaced crappy rear speakers whith the upgraded door speakers (thanx to Mark)
Next week she goes in for painted stripes, hood pins.
In the near future,(couple of weeks) doing the shorty headers and magnaflows.
Oh and less we not forget that 3d carbon boy racer hood I have on the go (whenever it gets finished welding).

BTW, Thanx Leslie. The silver and red combo add a little class to it.
How do you like your GPS? That is a nifty looking install. Sure beats having a wire hanging from a unit on the dash, but I don't want to get a poorly functioning unit just cuz I like the way it looks in the car.

All cool cars.....picked mine up Thursday and been playing every sence. Did some mods such as SLP loud mouth, BMR strut tower brace, and several different caps from Steeda. Just love the car, as I know you all do.

Bill - I still think your vert rocks. I haven't done anything to mine yet (except drive the heck out of it), so I am impressed with what you have already done.

Checked the ERL this morning and it said, "As of 4/27, your vehicle is scheduled to be built the week of 4/25." :banana2:

So, it looks like my wife's vert is going to be a Wednesday car. Wooraah!

So I am trying to convince my wife that we need a new GT Vert. So far, so good, but does anyone have photos of a Legend Lime GT Vert w/Parchment Int & top? While I am at it, I would like to see it with the Bullitt wheels. I have searched the entire site, and I can't find a photo of one like this. Hopefully one like this will join the club soon....

ERL just told me that as of 4/22 my vehicle has shipped via rail carrier. When ERL hadn't changed since the previous " as of 4/18 shipped via convoy," I thought my car may have been coming all the way to New England by truck.

Yesterday, my dealer told me Ford says the ETA is April 29. Gonna be a week of little productive work. Every time the phone rings I look to see if it is my dealer. Oh well, all in a good cause.

Well, my wife and I can OFFICIALLY join Club Vert now! I took delivery on 5-5-05 at ~5pm, did the mods Friday, and gave her the pony today.

The first pic is the pony on the dealer lot just before leaving and the second pic is of my wife calling a co-worker to brag about getting the car.

[attachmentid=20458] [attachmentid=20459]

I look forward to seeing more folks join the club now that summer is just over a month away.

Right click on the pic and chosse Properties. Right click three times on the link listed in the middle of the properties box. It takes three clicks to select(highlight) the entire URL.

To post the picyou have now copied, Click on the IMG Code Button that is located just above the Enter your post box, that you see when you reply to a post. A separate box will come up, just copy the url in to that box and it will post the link to the pic you copied in the body of your post.

Good Luck
