Getting ready for Las Vegas in April....
I didn't like the sound of the first set of mufflers that 'the muffler guy' installed and last Friday, the dual exhaust was completed with the installation of a pair of Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers...
I didn't want it sounding noisy and/or obnoxious! Has a pretty good growl at 55mph... Very tolerable at 65mph... I did the right thing!!
Saturday, was front KYB Gas-a-Just shocks and I detailed the inside of the fender wells, front chassis and added a fresh set of those little splash guards.
In '73, when my dad got the car, there was a similar set of splash guards that the previous owner had installed but, were a bit tweaked after 49 yrs.
I almost just removed them and didn't replace them but, they may do their job one day... The KYBs made a great difference!
Today, I installed a couple of new "Ivy Gold" repro arm rest pads.
This coming Saturday, I'll install the new rear KYBs and clean up the rear chassis...
I'm waiting for an 'over the console arm rest/cup holder' in "Ivy Gold" that just fits between the buckets (the simple one) and an 'air conditioning front console chrome trim piece' for the naked edge on the front of the console that was removed when the dealer installed air conditioning was installed.
Both of these pieces are backordered with no E.T.A...

That's why I'm always firing her up and detailing her. Is it summer time yet?!?

Actually i've never seen or heard of a similar equipped Mustang.
Wait about 6 months and it'll be up for sale.

Yes I'm going to the auto show but I don't know which day yet. I hope the 2015 is there.

Drove it 
Been sitting for a couple/few days, when I first started it she didn't run all that smooth ... took it on the road and drove it the way they should be driven, and she was much happier

I droved mine to the dealer for a front end alignment. Took the looong way so i could listen to the new pipes. It's so gorgeous here in Vancouver right now i could've put the top down if i had a rear windscreen.

Being that yours is a Canadian car, I would say it's probably 1/1 in that combination of options.
