Do we still own stangs?

[JC316]

I could not own a Camaro. But your thoughts and opinion is spot on with my take on them all. Love my Challengers. I would really like to buy a Charger widebody but we already have more cars than we need. I lived the majority of my life that way and I am all about simplifying things. About 2015, I just got tired of the work and hassle of keeping up a personal fleet. Always chasing parts or pieces. Now I buy a car I like and don’t worry about all the other stuff. It’s kind of nice not constantly searching for something I like better or have to have.

Only reason I got the Camaro was because it was the middle ground. Cheaper than the Challenger and better looking than the Mustang. I wound up loving the platform and the drivetrain, but hating how cheap it was.

I am with you on getting something you like and screwing the rest. I tried going back to a C5 vette and I couldn't do it, car didn't last 3 months. Just my challenger and my 69 Buick now.

Very nice, that estimated time is about right, most shops have a "Get to it" area that they address when the shop gets slow. Though that looks like a nice project and I can't wait to see the finished product.

Well that’s a breath of fresh air. If you do however want to sell… :-D. Although I’m sure there’s a waiting list. Lol

Yeah, not planning on selling it, and there really isn't a line for it... but if I ever do sell it when it's done getting painted it will be a big number.

I've had an 18 Camaro 1SS, a 21 GT Premium, and now a 17 Challenger Scat Pack.

To me, they represent three different era's in muscle cars. The Challenger is the 60's, big, comfortable, unapologetic, and bone crushing acceleration in a straight line. It's by far my favorite out of the three.

The Camaro is the early 00's. Great looks, light weight, fast as shit, an absolute riot to drive, but it feels cheap as all hell on everything. I was rubbing a hole in the floor mat at 11K miles and had a tear in the weatherstripping.

The Mustang is the modern era. It feels more like a luxury sports coupe than a muscle car. Think an evolution on the Mark VIII. Quiet, refined, loaded with features, and extremely well mannered. It has power, but it's hidden up around 4K RPM. Simply put, it's boring to drive.

Spoiler alert... it wasn't/isn't for sale. It's off to get stripped to bare metal, the driver's rear fender replaced, the roof cut off and converted to T-Tops, painted to perfection then I'll get it back in 18-24 months I think.

Nope, had to sell the rugs to afford this.

I would have loved to buy that from you...

Still have a 01 GT that is always under the knife for some reason or another. Then I have my 2014 FJ that is my other project. It has a Whipple 2.3l supercharger and no compression in cylinder 6. Rebuild is underway but I am in no hurry. I daily a '19 F150 but since I work from home, I don't drive much as of late.

[JC316]

Nope. Daily drive a Ram 1500 crew cab, weekend cruiser is a low mileage Challenger R/T and another hardly ever driven Challenger hidden deep in the back garage. Would love to have a new Mustang GT but not sure it would be what it used to be. Now things like comfort and ride quality are higher up than what it looks like. 😂

I still have my 98, I haven't touched it since Dec 2015 when I put the motor and trans back in it. I've been contemplating parting it out.

[lowthreeohz]

We sold the 08 in 2015? And shes had a wrx since then. We have a new bronco on order but who knows when that shit may show up

[68RR]

Still have the Coupe and Vert.
