Nice pick up, Most of my parts are for the 5 liters of friendly fire. What did she get, 6 or the eight? Rims i only have the stockers, 16 inch star wheels, that by 1998 was the standard wheel. you can look at a couple different options for wheels, powder coat, chrome, what does she have in mind? She get a vert? sweet if she did.

I noticed that right away and told the salemans, this hood has some issues, but I guess they come stock like that

I've got to say.....in as much as I'm not a fan of the newer cars, I LOVE the new Mustangs. When I look at one of them, whether it's from the front or the rear, I see a '68 Mustang. Even if I could afford one though, I just can't justify the price of a new car whether it's one of those or a new minivan. Just too much dough for what you're really getting. For that price, I could get an awesome professional resto of something I always wanted. Somehow a Mopar musclecar comes to mind. Even though my dad would prolly turn in his grave, he was a Buick man right down to the bone.

new car are priced crazy, I bought mine new in 95, 13,900. 11 years later they are 32k. look they are comming out with some nice cars in the next 5 years, but its better to let them drop. Only problem with that is what can be wrong, electronics whatever. Dosen't mean you won't find a good one, just have to know what to look for.

I don't know what it is.......I think they're ugly......maybe it's those slanted headlights remind me of a '59 Buick.......but I think the new Dodge Charger is cool.
