MCA Ocean State Nationals 2012 Judging Sheet

If you follow the TWF Facebook page, you might have seen my post on winning Gold in the Unrestored class at the 2012 Ocean State Mustang Nationals. This was my first experience at an MCA show and it was more intense than any other show I have attended. But, the...

Looking forward to top down driving

I had my TWF out for a ride today. Top up. Though, the weather is finally starting to feel like spring is coming. It is the kind of weather that makes you remember that owning a convertible is about the best thing ever. While out for the ride, I...

Feature Mustang Auction History Update

I just completed some updates to the 1992 and 1993 feature Mustang auction history pages. The request to add a search by sequence number was a feature that seemed too reasonable not to have. I too had experienced the need to look for auctions by this criteria while researching...

1992 Feature Mustang 1:24 Scale Replica

Mike G. just emailed me to provide pictures of his scale replica of his 1992 Feature car. We’ve seen one before for the 1993 Mustang but this is a nice set of pics of an outstanding effort. I asked Mike for some details on the build and he was glad...

Fear Not, Our Beloved Fox Bodies Are Not Among the Most Stolen

November 2011 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords has Carlisle coverage

Mike P. gave me a heads up on the Carlisle coverage in the most recent issue of 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords. I picked up an issue on my way home from a Mustang show today. With  little digital zooming one can see our tent and a few of...

Major Overhaul of Feature Car Part Number Lists

Just today I finished a big project which was an attempt to assemble every part number for the unique parts that make a feature car different from a standard Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible. I did this by browsing a Mustang parts database. This included interior and exterior parts. I...

1993 Mustang CD Faceplate

A while back I asked in the forums how hard it was to swap a faceplate on a 1993 Mustang CD stereo. Around the time, I had purchased an NOS faceplate just to have it in case I find a stereo that is working but has a worn faceplate....
