What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[MattMPA]

Finally pulled the engine surfboard and painted the center section. Used Rust-Oleums flat metallic nickel. Lots of flake. A friend has offered to do the "Powered by Ford" with paint. Trying to determine if One Shot Enamel will work on plastic.

Not what I did but I’m here getting my oil changed at AutoNation Ford Tustin. A friend of mine who is an advisor here had a 2019 GT in velocity blue. He had 4.56 gears in it and it was a screamer. He was moving at high speed and hit some unexpected water. He went through several trees and then into a pole. I’m shocked I’m talking to him. This is the worst I’ve ever seen a Mustang look.

That is a serious hit. Gad he is still moving.

I’m waiting for someone to post an “Is this a total?” thread.

yikes, glad hes around to tell about it. curious why he had it geared so low? 4.56 is crazy. with the transmissions in these cars I cannot think of a situation where you would want anything that low. my 3.73 are low but with only 6 gears to deal with it makes sense. Was his a A10 or 6 spd?

It’s funny that you ask that question. It was a 6 speed and he basically cracked the transmission in half one time. Of course he works for Ford so everything got fixed under warranty.

...and done. Had a paint marker to do the letters, used stripe tape for the lines. Brought into the house to dry where it's warmer. Aggie (the cat) approved.

That looks real good. What kind of marker did you use?

Washed last week’s road trip bugs off of the old girl and took some photos in a car show parking lot. I love this car, especially when she’s clean…

Mine won't go on till overnight lows are consistently above 0c. So prolly 2-3 more weeks.
