    I hope to see your ride someday in the future. I most likely will have some future Heart appointments at the HCM clinic.
    Stellar work and detail. Love the retro stereo.

    This spring I purchased a Mustang for my wife. It’s a 1988 coupe with a 5.0 and automatic transmission. The car had the drivers door replaced but the rest of the car has original paint on it. The car included wire mesh wheels that I had refinished. I replaced the exhaust, some suspension components and the water pump. I polished the body and lights and had some previous hail damage paintless dent repaired. The original seats were terribly uncomfortable so we replaced the seats with a corbeau set and did a few other interior upgrades. Now she can enjoy it for the summer before I paint it this winter.

    I decided to ain’t the red car this winter. The car was nearly rust free with original paint except the drivers door. The paint was faded and considering how rust free it was, decided to paint it. The only rust on the car is from the replacement door. Finding rust free doors is difficult.

    My FiTech is giving me new grief this year but I couldn’t resist installing my new wheels.

    For those of you that are still stuck with COVID protocols and car shows are still pretty much illegal, virtual car shows are still underway. Feel free to vote for my pace car. It’s the only 4 eyed fox in there in the stock section, number 88, just like Dale Jarrett from NASCAR.
