Hi Everybody
I am new to this forum. I've had many Mustangs over the years, but until recently had taken a Hiatus from them...why I'll never know, because I've always loved these cars. Most the ones I had in the past were early iron models, but I was out riding around after running some errands last week, and saw this pretty little Black Number sitting on a lot, so I stopped just to look at it. Never would've believed it was a Bullitt Mustang, but when I approached it I about fell down. "YEP! It's a Bullitt!" I let out a whistle, then saw the dealer coming out so had to regain my composer, in case I wanted to buy this thing. I looked it over, carfaxed it and it came back clean no wrecks, and knew then I was gonna buy it. I have been doing a little work on it already and decided I needed a forum, and here I am. I have driven this car a little, and WOW have these things come a long way baby...they are not the same as early iron models...they are a bit different. I really like this car, but due to the complexity of it, and the fact I have not kept up very well on the mechical technology of the new cars, I figured I would need some help from time to time.
Thanks For being here MustangSource, and all those who come here. This Bullitt I have is gonna be very well taken care of and will brought back to and kept in show car condition over time. I wanna do little things to it every now and then, but not break the bank. It is a driver for now, and we'll see what the future holds. I bought this car for a collector car as well as a really fun driver.
Every day since I've had it, I just say to myself "I've gotten myself into another one...again!" hahaha

MyPonyandMe, where in NC are you? I live in Mount Ulla near Salisbury and Mooresville. :-)
I will be getting some pics soon, but right now am working on headlights and car is ugly right now with headlights removed. hehe
I got a Mother's Powerball 4 Kit and dtarted with the 3rd Brakelight. Got it done lastnight, and have both headlights out and did a little cleanup behind where they came out, and need to do a little more cleanup outside, and then will get to buffing the headlights. I'm using a Die Ginder turned way down and it works out MUCH nicer than the drill they show. A word of warning though! I have done some body and paintwork in the past, and it takes a feel for speeds on stuff. If you've never messed with one of those little grinders beware! They are very high rpm, and MUST be turned down very low. I'm using it because it is light, and easier to control, but I have the regulator to the compressor tunred WAY down. hehe
I'll post more about that in another thread though. I will get pics soon. I just got it, and it is keeping me very busy, and I'm checking things out still. Those headlights were very bad off though so had to get on them right away. I don't think they were ever buffed out! It's been treated well, and taken care of, but some things were kinda let go...nothing real bad though. The car is in really good shape actually.

Hello! Are you registered on www.imboc.com? From one owner of a black 2001 Bullitt to another, enjoy your car, even if it is the "wrong color" for this model 
I can't tell you how many people ask if I have a fake Bullitt.

I've tried registering on I.M.B.O.C.'s forums, and cannot get a registration e-mail back from their forums, and have also tried 3 times to contact them through the forum and have gotten no reply. I wish I could get on there, but the Admins must not be checking the forums e-mail system or something is wrong. Don't know what to do. I sent them 3 e-mails spaced out over the course of a week and was very polite about the issue, and am kinda left with nothing else I can do.

Nope, they still didn't read the note I sent. I did not request a password reset and that's what the forum sent. I requested a Membership confirmation, or them going ahead and confirming it for me, because the confirmation mail never came. I'm still logged on as a guest and can do nothing.
I tell 'ya Tony, don't worry about it. I don't want you to have to mess with this. If they are not watching that forum I don't need to be there. Thanks anyway.
