This beauty was my 1996 GT vert. I got it for 4,200 with 149k, a cracked intake manifold and a canvas top in as good of shape as a piece of swiss cheese. After about 2 years, 1,200 bucks, and tons of knuckle breaking work to get her in tip top shape including, installing a new PI intake manifold, having a new convertible top and rear window installed, and wrapping those 245/45/17's with some high performance rubber.
My first week away from home, in a new town where I was attending College, I got in a nasty wreck and totaled it.
The picture that appeared in the local paper failed to mention my tremendous loss, only that I was 19 and had "swerved in front of the driver of this pickup truck."
As I stood there watching my baby being towed away, I realized I wasn't ready to leave the world of Mustangs
