    Dad had one when I was a kid, a red on red fastback that was his daily driver. Me and dad would go to the American car club every few weeks and during school holidays I'd go to work with my dad and we went in the mustang.... We called her Megan as the registration plate was C220 MGN

    another helpful tip for window tint after removing tint and you cant be bothered scrapping your windows use oven cleaner the spray on foam up stuff is best and use non-caustic saves razor blades arms and time. I use to do it with window cleaner and a razor blade but when i found out about over cleaner it changed my life.

    Tommy -I worked doing electronics for Chemistry experiments at a University for about 4 years. Sometimes I got to play with solvents like freezing them down to make specific-temperature slush baths. One of my favorites was cyclohexane. Dissolves silicon rubber lickety-split. And it was very good at removing the glue from bathtub stickers and those old plastic frost shields they had for cars and trucks way up north or on the frozen prairies in Canada where she goes down to -50 degC sometimes. Maybe you ought to try some cyclohexane on the glue of your tinted glass. The stuff is extremely flammable so be careful. Another material that might be useful would be sudsy ammonia. Don't breathe the fumes too much. Or even Windex. Why not give them all a try (separately) in the interests of science.

    The window trick is awesome I didn't knew it but I wanna add something. You can't scratch glass with a razor blade. The glass is usually a 6 in hardness while the blade usually is a 5 to 5.5. It won't scratch it. I learned that repairing phones. Keep up the good work!

    Wow, you could fit that fox body inside the S550. I'll take the 81. Its raw, unrefined-- a much more visceral experience which is what I prefer. It will never be faster than the S550 on a road course but who cares. It's the fun factor that matters.

    If you are going to modify it and drive it hard foxbody. If you buy a new car every 10 years the new mustang. Fox + lite simple cheap. Fox- needs mods to be modern fast and limited underhood space for an ohc .new stang+ modern fast with very little work. Reliably modern stang- weighs more than my 70 chevy c20 its a pig like most newer muscle cars. Ford computer systems are a pain in the gearhead ass. Very very expensive when a motor pops.
