Feel free to add your own

First car, got it when I was 12. 4 cyl. 5 speed.

2nd Mustang, bought it with full exhaust, intake and B cam, I added an S-trim and beat the shit out of it!

From a built 351 with a D-1 to a 393 w/nitrous... the car never ran

03 Cobra w/full boltons, dream car at the time

My helper

Built 351 w/nitrous and a C4. Pretty clean car save for the painted draglites and stupid pinstriping

Work in progress, already have a bunch of parts waiting then going to get painted.

And of course

I've got pics of some of my old cars, just paper pics and not on the computer.

I had a green coupe that very same color! I had welds for it and a set of chrome ponys. It was an EFI car, then we converted it to a 331 stroker, TFS heads w/bumped compression,BBK longtubes, 750 carb, Nitrous plate system, 90/10 struts, 50/50 rears, 4 cyl springs, no sway bar, TKO 3550 and a bunch of different clutches. Roll up windows, manual locks, 4 cyl interior, no heat, no ac, no power steering and was my daily driver. I thought I was so cool driving around a 9 second racecar then. No way could I do that now. haha.

87 GT - red/grey two tone, the ugly porno red interior, H/C/I, 3.73's.

88 GT - same mods as 87 GT

89 Coupe - black slammed on stock ponys. Exhaust, headers and stereo. Didn't have it long enough to do much with it.

89 LX hatch - slammed on black chrome ponies. H/C/I, stereo. A friend of mine wrecked it in a neighborhood. Hit the curb so hard it buckled the roof.

91 Lx vert - white on white, slammed on chrome ponies. H/C/I, kirban shifter with a new TKO 3550. I LOVED this car. But some asshole decided he liked it better than I did and stole it from me.

83 4 eye'd GT - Ugly as sin in primer and brown front nose piece but was fast for the day. carb'd 351, TFS heads, edelbrock intake, 750 carb, longtubes etc.

1993 Cobra - Vibrant Red, clean low mile car. Holley Systemax Intake (fully ported), 65mm TB, TFS heads, BBK longtubes, lunati cam, Vortech S-Trim. I had this car the longest of all my foxes and drove it the least cuz I was afraid to leave it anywhere unattended. I really enjoyed the car, but it was time to move on to something more modern.

1998 Cobra with a Terminator swap - I bought this car from our very own JD Bishop as an unfinished project. Once it was finally running good, that car was FUN to drive! It had a ported posi race blower on it with air silencers welded up on it so the blower SCREAMED. Had the usual other mods, 2.76 upper, 4lb lower, exhaust, t56 blah blah blah. I sold it because I got project frustration blues. After that car I swore off Mustangs forever...well see how well that went. Haha.

I'm missing a few cars, but didn't own them long enough to mention really or I'm drawing a blank on them. lol. Of course I've got the 12 GT and the 03 Mach we bought new. I try not to drive the Mach though very often. It's my wife's car and she has driven it 90% of the time, but I know that if anything breaks while I was driving it would get blamed on me even though it's a 11 year old car now. hahah.

Out of that list I think the 93 Cobra would be the hardest to part with, at least for me. A while back there was a teal 93 Cobra with a turbo and t56 for sale, saw it on corral. I was seriously considering buying that car at the time but I got a great deal on the 03, I drove it a little over a year then sold it for exactly what I paid.

It was the nicest and cleanest of the bunch, but after so many years of old rattling foxes, I was ready for a newer hot rod. The new GT was a great fit cuz it feels like a luxury car in comparison to foxes. I was ready to let it go to its new owner. At 540rw, I was at the point I had to put a built motor in it to where is wasn't matching numbers anymore or let it go. I made the right choice at the time. I really like my 12 GT, but I must admit I'm getting bored with it already but that is most likely because it's NA and I got so used to having boosted cars over the last several years. I'll either boost this car soon, or sell it from boredom.

My first car. 89 coupe. Bone stock when I got it. Ran 7.2's with hci and a small shot daily driving it 233k miles never rebuilt engine and t5. Sold motor and trans working fine and never smoked. My uncle had owned it since 91. Put a 351 in it and a c4 and had some fun. It now belongs to my dad.

94 gt. Great looking car. Bolt ons and gears. Just a cruiser.

88GT. Afr 165's, f cam, bbk ssi intake. This thing would scream at high rpm's

02 GT. Full bolt-ons, vt stage 2 cams, tko600, etc. Dyno'd 310/310. Quick car for what it was.

Current car. 82gt. Stock block 347. Small hci combo. Just enough to have fun and drive around. New wheels with correct bs soon, and different paint eventually.
