Nice collection of cars, and it appears our automotive tastes are not utterly divergent.

You're mixing Camaros, Ponchos, and Muskrats??? PREVERT!!!

The Mustang, on the other hand...

LOL. As long as it's American, it's welcome in my garage. (And by that I mean parent company-American)

Thank you! It's taken quite a bit of work to get her there. Bought the car when I was 16 and almost 15 years later I'm STILL working on restoring it a little at a time (Neither of the Camaros are frame-off, big money cars. More cruisers) In fact, the body you see there is almost entirely new metal.

As for the Mustang: it was an in-the-moment deal. I totaled my old daily, got $5K in insurance cash and didn't want to take on a car payment. So, I figured if I was gonna buy a risky car anyway, why not buy something fun? I've always loved the sound of mod motors and loved the look of the 'new edge' stangs. So I tracked this one down on Craigslist, and 3 years, roughly 60K miles and many LONG road trips later, the old mare hasn't missed a beat.

Thanks!

It has mild suspensions mods, 3 inch exhaust and mild motor mods. It's pushing roughly 400hp to the rear wheels. I bought it just the way it sits. I've always wanted one, but I also wanted to keep working on the Camaros. So I decided I wanted to buy one that was already modded to the point I wanted. Interestingly enough, the nicer cars were the goats that people were selling outright (as opposed to a dealership). I *almost* bought an orange one but was lucky enough to end up with this black on black and red beast.
