Well, just over two months and it arrived.

I know others have waited longer, but this was long enough for me. The hardest part was the last couple weeks. They shipped my car the whole way via truck. Amazing. From Michigan to California without touching a train.

But enough of that, here is what she looks like.

8:30 am Wednesday morning... in all her "I just travelled across the country on the top of a truck" glory:

Congrats! I ordered the same identical car as you on 3/3. I can hardly wait.
As of 4/19 C/U.
That is a really sharp car.

Have loads of fun.

Excellent choice in interior.......I picked the ICAP and let my wife choose the exterior color......Redfire.

Can't wait.

The red ICAP is Sooooo much better looking than previous "red" interior packages offered by American car builders. 60's red interiors were awesome looking....I had a 1966 Chevelle with black interior....my buddy had a '66 with the red interior, I always wanted that. (of course he had a 327 with a 2-speed powerglide and I had a 454 with a Muncie 4speed......so I was king regardless of interiors.)....Dang I went through clutches like the were on sale at K-Mart!

70's, 80's and 90's red interiors were....well....Ugggghhh

Ford got it ALMOST right and close enough by mixing enough black (dark charcoal) with it......However, I would prefer a two-tone, red down the middle seat instead....but it is close enough. ICAP kicks whoopass! IMO....A MUST HAVE for me.
