I would love to have that one but its a little out of my price range right now.
I'd love to have matching birds though! lol

Thanks guys....Will be even happier when I can get it home! lol
Since the car is so Close to Myrtle Beach SC we decided to make the trip down there, pick up the car, and catch a couple days of Mustang Week. So we will be there about 2 or 3 weeks. Just figured we would combine it all into one trip. Drive down with a stang and a t-bird and come back with 2 birds and a stang! Guess we will see whats faster on the way back. Should make for an interesting trip...

Sounds like you're going to have a great time!! This weekend is the All Ford Nats. at Carlisle, I'm a member of a mustang forum that's close to home. We have around 30 of us running together, I think only 3 or 4 of us have T-Birds, the rest are Stangs. I think we'll stand out a little. It's going to be a blast!!

Yeah that does sound fun. I got an older sister that lives in PA I might try to make it up that way sometime soon. As much as I hear about it on here it must be pretty nice.

Our convoy consist of:
3 Terminators
2 GT foxbody convertible mustangs
1 Supercharged LX hatchback
99 twin turbo cobra convertible
my 93 coupe mustang vortech supercharged (I will be driving that down)
My girl will be driving the sport since the mustang doesnt have A/C lol
A couple 99-04 GT's with a few mods and my dad will be the follow up pulling his 68 Shelby GT 350. Should be a pretty good ride down there.

I just put new rims and tires on the sport for the trip down. The Mustang still needs the fuel system installed and then its off to Fastlane for a tune.

Im sure once everyone calms down on the highway and quits racing each other we will get a little better gas milage! lol

That's what I'm thinking with our group. If I don't push it too much I can average anywhere from 20-25 mph. Not bad for an older car with 130,000 + miles. It would probably do better than that but I changed the rear from a 7.5 with 273's to an 8.8 with 355's. It's defenately much more fun now!! I've been doing some major polishing this week, I'm so glad I bought a power ball!! Those things work great!!

My sport gets pretty good gas milage. Probably the best out of the group that is going. It gets around 22 mpg. But its completely stock down to the 2:73 gear.
