Hey all, I am new here, but have posted a few times on the Classic Mustangs forum.
Got the new one, a 2006 GT Premium, manual tranny, in the Satin Silver Metallic, about 4 weeks and 2000 miles ago. Couldn't be happier with it. And over the past 5 years, did a ground-up restomod on a 1972 hardtop. I will start with the old one, that is MY car, I did all the work for it, including the paint, in my garage.
351 Windsor motor, FMX transmission, complete suspension and steering linkage replacement, conversion to 4-piston front discs (SSBC kit), all stainless steel lines, nice big sway bars, weld-in subframe connectors, and a boatload of replacement sheet metal, just to rattle off a few items. And 18 by 9 Chrome Bullitts all around, yeah, I know, everybody either loves 'em or hates 'em.
Either way, the car handles like a dream in the corners now. Only bummer is I know I could have fit 18 by 10s back there, but I couldn't bear waiting for a 1-month backorder.
Hope you like... I'd post a pic of the new one but we all know what they look like stock, don't we?

A new one and an old one
