Yep I agree, Shop that insurance price. Have you tried Travelers or Liberty Mutual? That price seems like GT coverage.

Hey April, you know what I would do if I were you? Get the Woodthingy IUP replacement pieces that were discussed in the Interior forum, get the paintable ABS finish and have them painted yellow like the car. Your interior will look awesome....

Congratulations April!

It will be a while for mine, the dealer still does not have any GT's and now with the hold it is going to be longer. I guess I can just keep waiting and saving torwards it. The day will come and it will be a splendid day at that.

Here another yellow banana for you!

Jeff

Best Christmas ever-
Too bad I can't take her Christmas Eve Don't wanna ruin her. I just spent all afternoon shining my ponies and the black things under the door and the tires, and the doors, and the interior.

I feel the uncontrollable urge for Ice cream from A&W.......Road trip...

The other 05 I encountered today said he too looks for excuses to go out.

Today alone:
Bank- the tellers admired her.....
Insurance- she tried to rape her said "coolest thing ever" .....
When I was cleaning her someone pulled in to my driveway to admire her...

Oh and a 93-98 vintage gt tried to race me, I was not playing. It went through the bank when I did- pulled up beside me and peeled out. Another woman too :scratch: :scratch:

Once again congratulations and beautiful car.

As far as keeping her nice and clean and smooth to the touch, I love Mother's Clay Bar. (Just in case ya don't know, its a clay bar that after lubricating the car surface you rub on the car to GENTLY remove any dirt thats accumulated over time and won't come off with regular washing. After using it my car feels smooth as any car on a dealership showroom floor, while some newer cars around here feel rough to the touch) And in suggesting it, I'll also suggest not to use Meguire's Clay Bar. I used the Meguire's once and it was not up to par, it was too tacky and stuck to the car, had to keep stopping to remove bits of clay, also scratched her in a place or two .

I usually clay bar my car twice a year (once before summer and once before winter). Its time consuming, but worth it.

Enjoy your little pony. And I hope you notice other yellow mustang drivers to you.

Congratulations on the car! It is beautiful and it sounds like you will finally be able to rest.

I do find it interesting that you consider a '93-98 mustang "vintage"? What do you call a real vintage 'stang? heheh

No- I don't consider it vintage-

I was using it to define which body style.
If it was a 99-04 I would have said the same.
