  • That sucks. :cry: I'm glad to hear you are OK.

    If anyone has the parts resources to rebuild her, you do.

    A…
  • If you want to post any pictures here, you should be able to. The process is to click the "I would like to attach more files" box when you post and then you will be asked to upload them. It's not that intuitive. Images need to be less than 50k, thou…
  • Personally, I vote for the white leather, but, that's just the purist in me. I do think black would look nice, though.

    I take it you have have black leather seats in the Cobra and don't want to swap them in to see how it looks?
  • Thanks for the information. I tried Grundy a few months ago and below is the response I got. I was very disappointed that they would not consider me.

  • I remember seeing a how-to that someone posted on stangnet.com or corral.net a little while ago that described how they restored their lights. I remember that they described doing some wet sanding and polishing. It was a great write up with pictures…
  • The update to the "Where are they?" sections has been completed. I managed to get to both the 1992 and in Forum availability from 8/4/2005 to 8/7/2005 Comment by TWF_John August 2005
  • Another option:

    I also saw them at Performance Parts, Inc.

    It is listed closer to the bottom of the page under Exterior parts as "Front air …
  • That's great that the feature cars had some representation there!

    I agree. I'm glad there are some that keep their cars as low mileage examples and preserve that status for the future. If I had one with 7k miles, I would find i…
  • So Sue, were you/will you be able to break away to get to Mustang Week? It sounds like fun. I wish I were closer.
  • Hi Jeremy,

    Thanks for joining the forums! Thanks for your story, too. It was a good read.

  • Congratulations on your successes!!! I love to get out and talk about the limited editions, as well.

    I'd be happy to post your pictures. Thanks for the update.

  • I just emailed the president expressing interest in white (93) and red (92) versions. Hopefully, it is not too difficult to produce them. I don't know much about manufacturing but I suspect the cost to do the others is incremental especially since t…
  • That's awesome. Thanks for the information. Maybe if enough of us request it, they will start making a white one.
  • Greg, thanks for making this offer to the members of this site! It helps to keep the site a valuable resource to feature car owners.

  • Ken,

    I suspect that a lot of people are out there just browsing this site. I'm glad you joined in. That's a nice story about how you got your car. It must have been great when you realized your car was different from a standard LX 5.0 co…
  • TRIWFOX, just wanted to let you know that I tried the Magic Erasers for the first time today. I was finally replacing my back seat after having removed it earlier this spring for a repair and I wanted to clean the white trim panels on each side befo…
  • Hi Sarah,

    I'm glad you found the site. Hopefully you will find it helpful as you are restoring your car. There are many helpful people that read this forum!

    That's great that you took over the car from your father and are kee…
  • I checked every source I could reasonably think of on this.

  • atxjohnny6, Sorry it took me so long to respond to your post. I really try to actively participate here. My cable modem has been down, so, I have been accessing the Internet via dialup so I have kept my activity to the essentials.

    Anyway…
  • Welcome to Ford Mustang ownership! You picked one of the best ones. :D

    I agree with roughneck on finding out how much the r…

  • I have really been most heavily into identifying every detail of the 1993's. But, now that I think about it, I don't recall ever seeing any information about special floor mats for the 92 cars. I'll have to look into this.
  • I don't know if you need to get the door glass back farther or the quarter window glass farther forward (or both) to close the gap but I do have some information for you. I have a Ford Service CD for 1993 cars. It contains much of the same informati…
  • Thanks Chet. It's good to know that I am not alone in my feelings. You make a good point about the comparison. The fox cars were well regarded in their time. The most "bang for your buck" was a common statement about the cars. In the early 90's I ha…
  • Hey Chet,

    If you want to post the item number here or even the url it would be OK.

  • Dean,

    No problem. I knew it must have been an honest mistake since we have communicated via email.

    I like the shots at night. [B-)] Great contrast between the car and the background. It really makes it stand out. I agree wi…

    I must have said it before but I'll say it again. This site is a labor of love.

    I don't think that sounds high at all. You got them for much less than half of that original price and most were new. Thanks for the info.
  • I thought I would post an update on my search for insurance alternatives. Hopefully it will save someone else time. I mentioned Grundy and Hagerty in my first message.

    Well, when you request an online quote from Hagerty you get a message…
  • Greg,

    That's awesome. What a find and it sounds like you got a good deal!!! Would you mind sharing how good of a deal you got? I'm sure it will make us all even more jealous. in Center Caps Comment by TWF_John April 2005
