Got a nice birthday card
I received a very nice surprise in the mail today. It was a birthday card from my mother-in-law that is a rendition of a 2006 Mustang GT convertible that she did by hand. She had told my wife about it and said that she didn’t think it was any...
Spring is in the air as well as thoughts of Mustangs, milestones and meets
Every year around this time when there are some hints that the warm weather is coming, I really start to miss my car. It’s not that I don’t have access to it as it is just out in the garage. It’s just that I’m really eager to get back...
1987 – 1993 Mustang Parts List
In my quest to find out ever more about feature car part numbers I acquired, through ebay, a parts list for 87-93 Mustangs. I wasn’t sure exactly the content of what I was buying as it was simply listed as a “parts list with prices” but the price was...
Easy come, easy go
I usually make a point of not mentioning active ebay auctions for feature cars and parts. This is because I am sometimes one of the bidders and don’t want to drive up interest and thus the ultimate final sell price. It is also because I don’t want my opinions...
I think I found a better insurance option
Quite a while ago I commented on my search for better insurance options for my feature car in order to solve the issues of using a conventional auto policy that would pay based upon book value when that is likely much less than what feature cars with low mileage...
Got a mid-winter Mustang “fix” with a rental
I just got back from Florida where I had the opportunity to rent and drive a 2006 Mustang. It was nice to get behind the wheel of a Mustang during the usual time of year when I don’t get to drive anything fun. Well, alright, 4wd in the snow...
Looking forward: A “Mustanger” in the making
Last year, I wrote an entry titled “Looking back” in which I talked about my first Mustang. Now it’s time to write the companion entry. I’m pretty paranoid about protecting the interior of my car from further wear. Conflicting with that is a growing desire to share the Mustang...
A major update to the “Where are they?†area as well as a short history of it
At long last I have completed my update to the “Where are they?” section. The update covers both the 1992 and 1993 versions. Over time, I have I kept adding more and more automation to the process of ebay auction tracking. This has made it less time consuming to...
Forthcoming updates to the site
I have occasionally commented/complained that updating parts of this site are manually intensive. The major piece to that is the “Where are they now†section. Also, as that section grows, it gets more unwieldy to use and in the size of the page itself. It is approaching 1/2 Mbyte...
Looking back: my first Mustang
I have occasionally mentioned my first Mustang before on this site. It was a 1991 LX hatchback. It was the only car I really missed after I sold it. Actually, I haven’t owned that many cars. Besides the triple white fox and that ’91 LX, I have had a...
