Tbird replacement...

I still miss my 'bird after selling it to Nate. I hope he finishes it and enjoys it. I have not been without a 'bird in the garage since 93!

I ended up selling my Saleen too and bought the car below. So far(3 days) it has been great!

It doesn't look bad the way it is but there's so much out there for those cars it hard to leave them alone! I had a chance to buy an 04 Mach One this spring with under 13k miles for an extreemly good price but I don't have the funds for another toy at the moment. And I guarentee you I'd have a hard time leaving it alone if I would've got it.
