On ebay: Monster Garage Switch Blade Mustang

I regularly search ebay for green 1990 Mustangs for my ebay auction tracking. Today I spotted the “Switch Blade” Mustang built on Monster Garage by Jesse James. It was from the first episode of that show. I really liked that show when it first came on and I was...

1990 7-up NADA Value

I was looking at ebay auctions and saw a 1990 7-up listed and the description included a link to NADA pricing. So I followed the link and it was NADA pricing specific for the 7-up convertible. Hmmm. This was the first I had seen any pricing site/guide break out...

1993 Feature Car Magazine Article Update

So as not to neglect the 1993 Feature Cars, I have just completed an update to the 1993 Feature Car Magazine page. Anton (cougster) was kind enough to provide some scans of some Mustang Times articles for which I did not have any or had very poor ones. Actually,...
