S197 3V Fabman's build; How did we get here? Build Thread

[Fabman]

I would love to get one of these... But where would the Boss sticker go?

I was not fortunate enough to have a boss.
Just a plain old vanilla 3v mustang gt with an automatic...however, it has been slightly modded since then.

Only just a little...... Lol! In the end its just a sticker... But I like it.

I do too, shame it doesn't show up as well on the red as it does on the other colors.

For my 50th Bday. My wife said, go get your play thing but it has to be red.... Who can argue against that.

Not me...I love red.

Truth be told, I would not/ could not choose another color. My first car love affair was with a 1980 Red Golf GTI, gotta be red.

I came dangerously close to buying a red tremor w/black stripes but at the last minute I went with white as it has been my car color scheme for decades and you don’t want to eff with tradition.

No wonder... She's naked in the front and must have caught a cold. Glad she's back on her wheels!

Any time I need to see what a real track car is about I just flip though this thread.
