It's Here
I received a call at work today...and look what I got!!!!
It's exactly a week late, and I didn't expect it in this week. We had some storms through the area earlier this week and the dealer (along with a large part of the town) didn't have power until yesterday. I ended up starting a project and she'll have to spend her first night home outside until I clean the garage tomorrow...and it's supposed to rain again. Oh well I'll find out if I have a leaker real quick this way
Great car, lots of looks, all the other Mustang drivers waved, and the kid isn't embarassed to be seen with his old man. All in all lots of fun.

Wayne! wow very cool top color. I didn't realize you could get them that way. Is that Parchment top and cloth? Those center lights are begging for yellow.
What are the windshield stickers? Anyway, great color and welcome aboard...

Thanks fir the comments. Been having a great time today after it stopped raining here. She just keeps wanting to go faster...
To Pouterson - Nice choice...love the color
To Awake in AZ - The top is parchment vinyl. One of the things I like about a vert is changing the top color when you need to replace...makes it feel different somehow and Moss Motors already has quite an assortment. For the foglights, I'm debating between yellow, blue and smoked for their final color. The windshield stickers are Pennsylvania mechanical and emission inspection stickers...at least we only have to have one plate though.
Lots of fun...lot of people noticing...feels like high school again

Found a place right around the corner to get the 303. Of course, I called as they were closing so I'll pick it up during the week.
It just keeps getting better and better. I stopped by the insurace agent's place, he and half the staff had to go out and look at it...my agent (a guy in his early 60s) took the keys...when I finished signing everything I went out and found him in the car idling with his eyes closed just listening to the engine...actually helped my rates because he realized "no one would mistreat a car like this intentionally".
The kid played with the dash lights (my-color) until they match up pretty well with the car (need to add a little red to the standard blue, not enough to make it purple though).
The wife tried to show a stern face about my "indulgence" but couldn't wipe the grin off her face when the Beach Boys CD started playing...we're back in high school!!!
Oh yeah, I told her about the bit when the top is down, the passengers...etc...all she said was not in front of the kid (our son is14 yrs old...)
Can't wait to see what we do today!!!

Congrats. Where abouts near Philly are you? You, me, cheese, Pitpup, etc will have to get together for a cruise night (just do it mid to late Aug after I get my ride!)...

No holes in the front...no plate either.
So far the only thing close to a negative is Taylor Hicks...
I'm NW of Philly, about 10 minutes from King of Prussia, just south of the Limerick reactor...come on over and catch the rays...

Sweet! Blue and parchment is my favorite combo. I'm on my second car like that. Love the looks of the GT/CS too, wish I had seen better pics before ordering mine, I might've gone that way. Enjoy the car, it's gorgeous!
