    Tell me what you need, Too bad you're too far so you could have the whole car after we're done with it.

    Wow they work fast!!!
    Last weekend, at the local mustang shop/hangout, they had a 95...and it was rotten! the floors were gone.

    Is that a new roof?

    i like em even better on the T-Birds(y)

    im getting one of these:bouncy: too bad the M12 cars don't have the same bolt pattern as the mustang:( i found a set for nearly dirt cheap the other day. and the Tbird cobra r's are pretty expensive.
