Nick, http://michianamustangs.com/

I understand everything but the gears. Going for a lower ratio than 4:10's or more back to stockish? Which I would understand with the present gas prices!!

Another beautiful night at Bonnie Doon's cruise in. A Dude came up to talk to me, I knew him to be the ex-owner of Fang Performance. He's telling me all about his new projects with Saleen SuperChargers. He use to preach nothing but Vortex SC'ers but told me his Vortexs cars and a turbo car had blew up and he was staring over with Saleen powered cars.

Here's a list of area car shows and cruise ins for Northern Indiana

Wow...very nice find!!! I will go out on a limb here. If this car shows up at Barrett/Jackson in January of 2009 and it is the real deal as advertised. I will say 1.5 million. And I think it would be a good investment!! Just my opinion!

Where have you been the last couple of days? Got the GT500 spoiler tonight. Looks like it is in good shape and the paint seems to match well. After the storms move thru tonight I might go out and get started on the install by at least removing the stocker.

My job sucks right now- big time. Pondering selling the car and some other goodies, and taking up a job at McDonalds or WalMart. Right now, anything with the least amount of responsibility possible sounds good.

Thanks Darrell...Does it have rubber ends so it won't harm the paint? I don't need anymore BFH jobs.

subscribing....any links to the event? Maybe Ben and Chris can drive 10 miles to come up and meet us!!:-)
Scott


Edit....have made reservations for Friday and Saturday night for Karen and I also. With the AARP discounts and AAA discounts I think $37.50 a night at a Hilton is pretty reasonable. :-)

I seriously hope your kidding on that price...... although I did spring for the "romance package" LOL, our two night total is $475. The package is only like $30 a night extra, woulda still been $400 or so for both nights.
