The Interest in Feature Cars is Alive and Well
All in the course of a few days, three things happened that made me feel real good about my Feature car. This is good because I have been thinking a lot lately about the 2005. The first thing that happened was that I got the January 2005 issue of...
Fall 2004 Show Pictures
I attended my second and last show of the year in September. It was another great day, weather-wise. Again in the all stock 79-93 class, I was lined up with a bunch of other white fox bodies. At the very end of the line was a yellow Feature car....
Back to Sleep for the White Fox
We had our first snowfall a little over a week ago. That means sand and salt on the roads so it was time to put the “White Fox” away for its winter rest. My car spend the winters in an unheated garage. The garage is attached and even on...
Reconsidering Insurance
Probably much like many feature car owners, I have come to the realization that the book value of my car is less than what it would cost to replace the car. That has moved me to reconsider my traditional auto insurance policy. The only option my current insurance provider has available is to...
Spring 2004 Show Pictures
The first show of the season was a success. I didn’t take home any trophies due to some stiff competition in my class (79-93, any body style, all stock). (Actually, I have never taken home a trophy) I did get to meet some new people. I met Kevin who...
Pictures from the 2005 Mustang Tour
The 2005 Mustang Tour made its way through the Northeast over Memorial Day weekend 2004. This not very well publicized event was scheduled to meet the Great American Pony Drive II in 14 cities on the Pony Drive’s 40 city tour. I only found out about the 2005 Mustang...
Winter storage
The winter months are spent in storage. I found the cabinets at a garage sale for $5 apiece. I painted them black and applied a running pony decal and painted some stripes (similar to those used on the first Shelby Mustangs) along the bottom ....
Rick Derringer’s Yellow Feature Mustang
I found these photos in February 2004 on an ebay auction for what was claimed to be Rick Derringer’s 1993 Feature Mustang. The authenticity of this was confirmed when I found that the ebay auction was mentioned on Rick’s official Web site. Rock and Roll Hoochie Coo!...
The “10 hole” table
Here’s a table I assembled with a spare “10 hole” wheel from my first Mustang (you can see a picture of it on the table. It was a 1991 LX hatch). The glass top is 19″ in diameter. The stand is from an extra drum throne that I had...
June show
For my second show of 2003, I went into an all stock class. It was years 1979-93. All body styles. Most were convertibles so I felt right at home. It was an overcast day. At times I was sure it was going to rain. Thankfully it did not. I...
