Introduce yourself!!

Grabber Mustangs

Hello All,

My name is Mike and I am really liking this forum. I have been lurking for a week or so searching several forums for information on my latest purchase.



2017 GT PP with Recaro's. As it is my DD I'm not going to go crazy with it, least not yet. I have had several Mustangs over the years, from Fox body GT's, a SVO (which was a lot of fun) and a bunch of first generation examples. Several years ago I sold all my '80's rides and got back into the older cars.



This is a Grabber Special, poor man's Boss 302. The only thing "special" about it was the Grabber Green paint and the reflective 1969 style C stripe, much like the B302 without the logo. It came factory with a two barrel 302 / auto. It's getting a few upgrades like full coil over 3-link suspension, 9" full floater rear, big brakes, Formula 43 wheels (18x9.5 front, 18x12 rear) Hogan's sheet metal intake on top of a 427 Windsor, full cage, Corbeau seats, side exhaust (through the rockers)Stainless hand built exhaust and headers... the list goes on and on.

I am looking to add some SP080 springs to the '17, maybe some wheel spacers and an exhaust at some point. I'm on my second tank of gas, so it is prime for some mods. I'll be searching all sorts of things to see what everyone is up to.

Nice! Love your Stang history! Welcome!

I remember when a co-worker bought a brand new '69 390 4sp. fastback in Black Jade. I thought it was the coolest thing on wheels. He was a wild man with too much car and soon wrecked it. So here I am, first time Mustang owner, finally, with a new '17 Lightning Blue, auto, with a spare tire and backup beeper. I'm digging owning and driving this beautiful American Icon and will have to personalize it a bit, already am. Great forum here.

Suh Dude?

Hey everyone, my name is Nick, I'm a student at UCF in orlando, and I drive a '17 GT Premium in Shadow Black with the Redline Interior, 401A package, and Performance Pack. Took delivery in NJ from Felix Sabate Ford in NC on July 17 this summer, and have 2,500 miles on it so far. I have an instagram (shameless plug lol) and its the same as my username.

Hello everyone. It's been a long time since I've gotten to Daily a Mustang.

'16 PP GT Comp. Orange with only 5k miles, no Mods that matter really.. ..Roush CAI, PYPES Axle Back, Shock tower covers and some stupid Carbon Fiber bits Decklid panel/Engine Cover.

Next Season all I'm worrying about is Driving it, Car shows with the family and get as much seat time as I can at all of the AutoX and Big Track events I can. ..I have to learn to drive all over again. The last time I was on a Road course was 2001 with a 71.

Congratulations and enjoy your new ride

Congrats, and welcome to the forum.

Hello all

New to this Forum. I have a 2008 Shelby GT500 had it for 8 years. I am looking at getting a 2018 GT Performance pack car. This will replace my Shelby and my 2015 Fusion that I just sold. Before the Shelby I had a 2007 Roush 427R before that an 88 Fox that ran 12.86 110 MPH.
Thanks for having me.

You've had some great cars! Welcome!

Have been reviewing this forum for the last couple months.
And got a lot of info to determine my purchase of a 2017 Ecoboost.

I’m new to the Mustang community. I live in DFW Texas and have been reading on this forum for a couple months now. I figured it was time to introduce myself. I had a couple Nissan Z’s in the past along with some bikes but nothing American but try not to hold it against me . I don’t know all the forum lingo quite yet but I have a 16 Premium PP 6sp Magnetic with some fun stuff I’ve added after just recently becoming a new S550 owner. I’ll try and attach some pics but suspect they come out the size of Texas on here.

Im too dumb to know how to make them better quality without making them too large in size :shrug:

Hey guys just joined up to help get info on my upcoming purchase of a 2018 GT premium performance pack, so far I have already found tons of good info. Looking forward to getting this car ordered soon!
