Since 2002 / Still in the garage
One red Mustang.
Lots of stories.
My 2002 Mustang GT. Torch Red, a few modifications, and a lot of miles together. I bought it new, and I've decided it's staying.

More than a way
to get somewhere.
This car has been part of my life since I bought it new in 2002. It's a New Edge GT with a 4.6-liter V8, an automatic transmission, and plenty of opportunity to tinker.
It's been to Florida, New Orleans, Yellowstone, Colorado, the Black Hills, and around Minnesota. Working on it has been part of the enjoyment, too: there are always things to learn and changes to make.
This page used to be a sale listing. Not anymore. It's now a place to keep the car's story, photographs, and ongoing projects.

Graphics, take two.
Last year I accidentally backed my bass boat into the passenger door. The door has been repaired, but I still need to reapply the vinyl graphics.
That's the next chapter. The archive below shows the car at different points in its life, not necessarily its current appearance.
