New owner of a 92 Feature Stang
Hello all, just wanted to introduce my self. Looks like I'll be searching this site often. My brother and I purchased a 92 Feauture stang yesterday. We're a ford family...he already has a 93 GT vert, a 91 taurus SHO+, and a ranger...i've got 5 thunderbirds (4 are 3.8L supercharged and the other a 5.0 stick ), and dad has a 2000 taurus.
In any case, are there any other Feature stang owners in maryland?
The car is a one owner car originally from colorado. It was a daily driver but the original owner loved the car, kept it stock and was really good with maintenance. It does have small issues that will need to be worked on, but nothing major. I'm already searching the archives for cleaning tips and about the 'right' color for a 92 convertible top.
Aha! Newb mistake...i just saw there is a forum for introductions. [:">] If a mod can move this to the right spot please, thanks!

Besides the thread on tops we also have an interesting one on '92 door tags and the associated build date. It's worth a read.
If you get a chance, please register your car with the registry.
Also, consider coming to Carlisle. It shouldn't be that bad of a trip from MD.
I see theres a pretty small number of 5 speeds in 92. Most of the ones i've just seen on ebay now are automatics. I will most definatelly register this car's info as soon as i get it tagged. Right now its sitting in my bro's house under a cover next to his 93 stang. SHould be a couple weeks.
I live in South Jersey and do head to northeast Maryland to visit friends alot. What part of Maryland are you from?
Cobra2top...i live sandwitched between Washington DC and BAltimore. I live in Laurel, MD...which is pretty much 30 minutes south of baltimore and 30 mins north of DC.
You don't live too far from me. I live in Waldorf, MD and also recently got my feature car - 93 yellow and black.
I have the pix from the craigslist posting. I haven't taken any pics my self....but I cant wait until I do!

as a matter of fact i know someone who might be getting another feature but in automatic...i should know by this weekend if he buys it.
Looking forward to seeing it at Carisle!
My bro went to see another feature stang yesterday in Glen Burnie MD that he found on craigs list, but he said it was in pretty rough shape. Guy wanted 3k, but the car need alot of work (top, doors didnt lock, missing trim pieces, etc ) So its just one in the family for now.
WOW, sounds just like mine! I bought my 92 a year ago and it needed a top, he drivers seat leather fixed, lock actuator, and the rear window was not working. Mine has similar mileage so I guess those are the things that go. The first thing I fixed when I got it was the window, fortunaltely it was only the power window switch went bad. I got a used one from MPS, hooked it up and it worked. I just had my top fixed this month finally. The seat is still not fixed but I am working with a company now to get them done. And I still have to use my finger and push down the locks as a new actuator has been sitting in a box for close to a year and still not in the car...too many projects, not enough time!!
Again, welcome to the club. Great group of people here! There is alot to learn about these rare cars!
