    Very cool ! Where did you go in NC to get it, cause mine has been missing for a few days? Was it an ebay car, or did you just find it on line?:thumbs2:

    Nice! Looked at one at a used car dealer in town but he was way over priced.

    Now you are going to have to find a good flat hood for Smurf and cut it up and install the Shaker scoop on it :dancing:

    Nice looking car David, are you going to start collecting Mustangs now

    Thanks guys. for some reason i seen it for sale and just had to have it. i sold both my '94 Cobra and '95 GT to get it but in all honesty, im really not disappointed about it. it's not the fastest thing in the world but it makes up for it with it's looks :drive:


    and i thought about it a long time ago Mike, about putting a shaker on the smurf. Ive seen it done to one other mav in person and it looks sick!

    Looks really nice. Maybe not the fastest but a nice driver no doubt. Short of big money on a supercharger your pretty much stuck with the power thing. You can always play with braking and suspension instead of drivetrain.

    We need a picture of the E bay! I really like how they actually made the shaker functional.
