Well I haven't really liked the convertible fro a while so a month ago i traded it in on a 10 GT premium in Grabber Blue with a 5speed. The deal i got on the car simply couldn't be passed up even with the 5.0 coming soon. I have had the car a month, but I haven't got to drive it much.
The dealer added super snake stripes to it, i picked the car up in the dark and the next day the stripes were pathetic. Took it back and it was there getting redone for a week. then i took it and had a roush m90 supercharger installed, which took a week. Lol, then the speedo stopped working so it is at Lade Ford right now getting that fixed. Should have it back next week. Anyhow, here are some pics:





Still lots to be done, stock wheels and tires have to go. I am thinking black roush wheels with polished lip. then suspension, the exhaust and a myriad of other stuff. I'll be ordering new wheels and tires about this time next month, if anyone is interested in these stock 19" premium wheels, tires, and TMPS sensors let me know, they are perfect. I think I am going to sell them off rather than cram them in the garage with all the left over parts from my 05.

Wow, that is a good looking car! Those stripes really set her off. Can't wait to see what else you do to her.

Yep, absolutely a gorgeous Mustang and great pics! The Super Snake stripes work really well with it too. You have to have some black to make Grabber Blue work.
Hmmm...I'm really diggin' that Grabber Blue for some reason.

I went to TKG and REL, but graduated in '79 from Friendswood HS. I did not buy my '70 Mach 1 until spring of '81. I never lived on Susan Dr., but I did live in Whitehouse from '83 when I got married until '93 when we moved to Flint. We lived on the corner of Christopher St. and Russell St.
What year was the Grabber Blue Mach 1 that was on Susan Dr.? I do not ever remember seeing another Grabber Blue Mach 1 running around "back in the day", but I may have just missed it.
