I dated a girl in high school who drove a car just like that...... with reddish interior and 5 speed. Man I loved that girl LOL.....

Here is my Fox- bought it new in '92. Now has 75k miles.

I have an aftermarket in dash DVD player. I am using a license plate bracket with integral video camera so that I did not have to drill or find a place to mount a camera. It works great.

Well I reinstalled the front markers today. There nice and snug now. I also had to readjust the passenger over axle pipe again. It was rubbing on underside of tire well. So I got that fixed and no more rattle. Then I went for a long drive. Passed a kid in an new '08 GT500 Torch Red Vert with stripe delete. Oh it was a beautiful car. I saw it again later parked in a supermarket parking lot between two cars and close to a loose shopping cart. I would never dare go there with my car. I won't even let my wife park the Expedition in that area when she goes. There is a hill there and all the wind and the slope funnels carts in that direction.

So I am currently looking for a golf cart. Preferably used. I belong to a local golf course and they allow members to park their own carts in sheds that you rent from them. I've been on the waiting list for 6 years and my name is finally at the top of the list. The course is awesome, its $420 a year for membership and then $240 a year to rent the cart space. So for $660 a year I can play golf everyday as much as I want. Last 5 years I probably play about 100 rounds per year. Anyway I think I'm gonna have to go to Houston tomorrow to find something. Most carts around here look like they were used for running cattle or something.

I saw so many mustangs today. It seemed like every few seconds I'd see another one. I even saw a pretty cool looking Cobra. It's weird though, how whenever I'm driving mine, I rarely ever see any at all, but when I'm in something else, I see tons of them.

there's quite a few of them around here, unfortunately, very few of them are modified at all, meaning that most of them were bought as just a regular car

Man its dead around here this weekend. I got a golf cart today used here in my hometown. Its an E-Z-GO 36v 2005 model in hunter green. It's got a jumper chip in it that will allow it to do 19mph. I just got in from tearing it completely apart for a quick restomod. Its got some rust in the battery tray from where I guess the water has boiled over before. So I'm gonna clean up the frame and paint the frame and all odd parts flat black. Then I'm gonna paint the two shells but I don't know what color yet. And last I'm gonna paint the trim pieces flat black. I was thinking candy apple red for the cart. I need to order new seats and get some better looking wheels. Its in pieces now I'll post pics tomorrow.

LL would be cool. I think I'm going to use my Mustang from my original front grille and put it there where the E-Z-GO emblem is on front.

I live about 5 miles from course, I'll have to keep cart there at course. The course is great because if you pick the right time you can play a round in about 2 1/2 hours as a twosome.

I think LL with matte black stripes would be even cooler. I've got to find some vinyl for stripes.

I agree with David. You should paint it to look like the mustang!
