    Cool. Glad to see another red wagon on the streets. I've been itching to do a Power Tour, but something always gets in the way (life). I even thought about doing the tour with the 2.3L still in my wagon. Not much power, but I wouldn't have to hit every gas station to fill up

    It's great when you are sitting in the parking lot and the local cop drives through and tells you that this is a bad part of town and you better lock your stuff up.
    Better yet when he tells you that this motel has a lot of crack dealers but you guys probably have them out numbered...... we had no problems though.

    As much as I like seeing a ride fully detailed etc, it's pictures and stories like this that show a car is actually getting out on the rode and being driven. Brake dust, a little road dirt, you've put some miles under that car.

    Nice work again. Dig the car.

    No I am not on mustangcentral.net. This is my second power tour. I will do it again just not so many days. 3-4 days is plenty for me. I think the problem this year was that I was so burnt out from getting the car ready. I had a good time but it could have been better.

    Thanks!

    I am one for driving not polishing. I did wash it once we got home.

    Stay tuned for a 5 speed swap. I haven't gathered parts yet but am looking.
