Well after three years of buying and selling mustang, I'm finally going back to my real love. She is a 1970 Olds 442 car originally 390 horse car from factory. I had the interior done 10 years ago and looks just like it did when it came out of MAZ in Oakland. I have a high horsepower 455 ( i think they said its more like a 496 now )that I bored over and should put down some amazing numbers, its a Joe Mondello recipe so should be off the chain. Well had my buddy bring over the tow truck and put into the labratory so I can start the clean up and get ready for the install. Was candy painted at one time but, you know me wasnt right so i stripped it down and she will be treated to new bumpers, new cowl hood and rear spoiler. i wont have done for Hot August this year but i think 2008 she will debut.
check the plates they say MEANMUG There are alot of ss camaro guys that know the back of this car they hated to get beat by this big heavy car, specially when they were still making payments on it. HAHA

You got the wrong guy my man. You sold my baby brother tailights for his white 93 years ago. He still has it.

My Mustang list is like this:

95-97 67 coupe
97-02 87GT T-tops
01-02 92LX hatch
02-present 93 coupe
