Seen in upstate NY, she’s a beaut and it’s a shame I didn’t pick her up. Unfortunately the lady can’t drive a manual.

Honestly?
Strip the paint, tweak the panels to fit properly, maybe swap the front bumper, and I would daily the hell out of that.
It’s so hilariously over the top that I’d coat it in day-glo yellow and rock the early-mid 2000s tuning scene aesthetic.

No clue but, it'd be a hilarious beater.

I love that faded out 90s yellow, if only there were a way to fake the sunfaded dullness like people fake patina now.

A lighter yellow paint might do the job, i.e. one with less of the pop from modern yellows.

Dakar Yellow like on an E36 M3

Not won't, can't. Once I get the E46 back up and running I'll teach her in that. The Mustang is a bit much to learn on.

If I had the money I'd wrap the Mustang Dakar yellow, all semi-glossy and gorgeous, not stupid paint swirled black and spotty.

“Not won’t, can’t.”
I tease, of course.

The bucket list I’d probably do to this thing is:
- Swap front bumper for something a little less overkill and crowd-clearing
- Swap the hood for something more along the lines of one of those subtle reverse hood scoops
- Align all the panels for proper fit
- Get it wrapped/painted/whatever
in Dakar Yellow
- Drop some stripes on it
-
Do up the rear window louvers in matte
black, but not deep black, more of a slightly-UV-worn black
Of course, there’s probably more wrong with it than just bad taste, but... it’s a foxbody, parts are everywhere for them

nice cobra wheels, body kit is a bit much... Is it a real 302 5spd? Love the stock GTs and Saleens of that era...

The lady can walk. This is so bad it’s almost good.
