This year I've had the privilege to start getting to car shows with my car. Absolutely loving it. Its surprising the attention I get and its nice to know my work is paying off.

I was the ONLY thirdgen in the show of nearly 200 cars this weekend. It sorta tells us about our cars in my opinion. I made as many shout outs to TGO as I could about anything thirdgen related when talking to persons about the car. I truly have no idea how much I could have gotten done without you guys!

 

i love the stance of your car, and thats pretty cool that you were the only third gen because you know you have one of a kind car.

 

Thanks man. It was cool to be one of the few cars there with no duplicates. There are SO MANY mustangs out there

 

That.... is.....one.....sexy......car.....

 

I am pumped about getting to show it more and more this year!

 

Whats with the black door ground fx piece?

 

Its a vinyl carbon fiber actually. It was temporary while i was waiting for paint...but now i kinda like it and am looking to get some real CF pieces made.

 

It's cool to see thirdgen's holdin it down at car meets like this, before you know it the thirdgen will get out of this ghetto/m u l l e t stage and be sought out for and be appreciated like it should. Thanks for the pics TS.

 

I sure hope so! I already get compliments everywhere I go because where I live there are only about 3 of us with restored, kept up thirdgens. And the rest look like they just crawled out of a junk yard,

 

That is weird to look and see how small these cars are compared to the 5th gen and the Challenger. It is not much bigger than the Ferrari next to it.

I agree with the above post. Most third gens around here have been beat pretty bad. No one is really restoring them as they still have service duty left in them. Kind of like the late 2nd gen cars say 10-12 years ago and now they are gaining popularity. It wont be long before people start wanting them and actually buy them to restore them. As some get wrecked or crushed out it will make the restored and surviors worth more and you'll see them pop up at shows.

 

I know! The 5th gen and charger are HUGE! Thats why even though they have massive engines our thirdgens can still kick them around. I am putting out the exact same amount as horsepower as that charger and only 50 less then that SS Camaro (has mods). I've run the SS before and from 0-60 it was close. The charger I've not run but he and I both agree I'd most likely win.

I'll be happy if our cars go up in price as much as the 2nd gens did!

 

Good work.

If I might also add as others have, the size difference is alarming between the Third Gen and the new musclecars, it's long but doesn't look like a tank. It's also alarming how much better and sleeker it looks against them! More like the Ferrari for sure!

 

I know! as Damon23 mentioned its not a whole lot bigger then the ferrari. I hope that chevy turns away from that 5th gen body style. Lets get a lighter, sleeker 6th Gen.

 

Make DAMN sure you let me know when the next meet is in Alabaster... I'll be there hell or high water... I told Brandon (the dude w/ the 67 C10 4x4) about it and I think he's going to come out also if he's not working...
