Just another old guy in a rental Mustang

[T.O.Bullitt]

It may not be my Bullitt but this friendly rental pony sure does wear the great lines of the S550 well.

Looks good! I ordered those wheels, for silver car with light interior.

Was going to get them for the Bullitt’s winter tires but then a set of 50th anniversary package wheels came along at a price I couldn’t say no to.
But really like the pony package wheels, too.

@T.O.Bullitt I may have seen you and your car one day, at Albion Mall, perhaps? I am in the neighbourhood sort of, south of the Humber.

This car has the Pony Package. 2021 looks the same.

Yep. 2021 Pony Package.

I really like it could you add that to a gt premium

 

[T.O.Bullitt]

I think they are just raw polished ALU which is one step less to anodizing them reslitiveky cheap.

I knew a dude named Reslitiveky, used to drink me under the table.

Absolutely. I can't believe people don't need locks for those grills. A Mustang isn't a Mustang without a corral grill.

Much easier/cheaper to do for a 2018-up. For a 2015-17 Ford only offered the corral grill in 2015 for 50th anniversary model/package and list the part for 3-4 times the price of the non-corral grill. Had to have one anyway for my 2016.

Here’s the only shot that I took of it from the front.
It is a looker, isn’t it?
I don’t think you can get the Pony Package with a V8, can you?

Package is just for Eco. But the grill is just a part. The bumper is the same for eco, GT, Bullitt, so all grills for one fit the others for a given year/gen.

Same for the tail panel which is interchangeable for all years/models of S550s. If I get the chance, I'd like to replace my GT panel with a Pony panel. It has a tri color tribar Pony that would go with my white paint with blue stripes and red interior. Ford wants too much for the entire panel and doesn't sell any model rear panel trim by itself other than maybe the plain chrome pony which others make since its also used in various grills.

Got a pic of the rear panel from your rental?

Sure do.
Taken when I picked it up to record some scuff marks on the bumper but I think it shows what you’re looking for.

I’d love to have this one from the EB HPP.

Another old guy here and I love my retired rental vert. It spent its first year of life serving the fine folks of Las Vegas which allowed me to buy it cheap. Of course, I'm probably one of the few people who drive it harder than it was treated during the rental life, but it is well maintained and a joy to drive.
