hello from IA, my first mustang

Not officially an owner yet, have been waiting for a black on ingot silver GT500 to show. Looking forward to sharing in the fun. Never owned a mustang yet, we had a 71 mach 1 back in the early 80's. Was fun to drive, but needed o2 to do so.
Enjoy many hobbies, have two boys, youngest is 5 YO, and a wife of 11 years. Owned my own CNC machine shop since 2001, so rarely have time to get out and enjoy all my hobbies, but do so every chance I get.

Already have some minor mods waiting to install.
Take care!
Jimmy

Got the car Friday. Love it, great piece of machinery. Installed a Bobs oil seperator, sill guards, and hood struts. Only have a JLT resenator delete intake and airaid filter to install.
The car is truly engineering artwork!
Take it easy fellas!

Thanks guys! Just finished up the third coat of liquid glass today. Pics were taken without cleaning at all. I asked the dealer to not touch it, other than taking off some chalk marks.

Is that West Des Moines? I'm in Newton. My DD is a cherry 1967 Mustang Convertible. Nice looking GT500.

Thanks again guys...getting ready to put it away in the next couple weeks. 67drewstang, That picture is at the Mills Civic area, but I'm out in the country by Van Meter...not far from there.

The car has exceeded every single one of my expectations. Best car I've ever owned!
Thanks much for the support
