So, what have I done in that year? Well, I painted the GT badges, trimmed out the taillights, added the chrome trim around the grille and Ford Racing Stingers.

I took an 18 hundred something mile, 11 day vacation through Northern AZ. Attended 5 shows. Got published in a local enthusiast paper and broadcast on the companion TV show.

Took a day trip to Sedona with the 2005Stang.com gang. Had the car apart for cleaning for two months two diff times.

Taken 382 pics of the car, not including parts shots or close ups.

And spent 1100? something dollars on parts and stuff.

Still smells new, but not as strongly of course. Sadly. Although I have a way of "recharging" that new car smell, just havent done it yet.

And now I can resume driving. Last time I drove was to the Tricked Ponies show. Since then I havent because I didnt want to break 3K in a year. Its warming up, spring is just about here so its time to show, cruise in and drive.
