Gary's Red Vert

Thanks to Nathan for saving this first post off of Google. You are a true friend.

So here it goes...again.

************************************************** ********************



Well I finally got me a Fox Mustang. It only took 21 years, but she's mine.

The car...

1991 LX 5.0 Convertible
64,xxx miles.
Automatic transmission
Red exterior, Black top, red interior
Cloth sport seats
All 100% completely stock!
Power mirrors, door locks, windows, manual seat, AC, stock cassette deck works.
Bought it off ebay, and drove it home from Florida this past weekend. Drove 1,100 miles like a champ with no problems.

Problems...
Top won't work. A piece on one of the pneumatic rams broke and I've got to get it welded back together or get another one.
Overdrive is shot. Overdrive gear just slips and will not catch at all. All other gears work flawlessly for now at least.
Needs a new front bumper cover. This one has cracks on the corners.

Pictures...

These are cell phone pics from Florida the day I bought her. I'll get newer, better ones after I have time to clean the bugs off her front and get her a proper wash.

Nathan had a blonde moment!

I'm sure we've all had at least one!

Me, I only have senior moments now! Soon, I will be able to hide my own Easter eggs
