        Yes.

        The rims are American Racing Torque Thrust Ds...the same ones from Steve McQueen's green fastback in the movie Bullitt.

        I'm leaning towards the pewter with black stripes at this moment...but don't discount the red with white stripes just yet...

          No...it's mostly all new stuff.

          When I first bought my car about five years ago...it looked like this:







          Now it looks like this:






          I have since sold the woodgrain steering wheel...it looked better than the black one I replaced it with...but I was just never comfortable with its grip.

          The car was neglected by its previous owners...but it's a California car...meaning...it came pretty much rust free...my buddies and I inspected the entire car's metal integrity before buying...we went under the carpets, trunk compartment...and most importantly...the floor panels.

          The only place where there's a little bit of rust is inside the cowl area...all early Mustangs had/have this problem...Ford didn't protect the bare metal inside. But I have a cowl cover (use it when washing the car)...and I never ride in the rain. But even it water gets in there...there's no more leak...a friend of mine managed to seal the leak..but he still recommend not having water go through there.

          Now...I'm not a pro like Zemo (and I had help as well)...it was not sand blasted, nor the engine taken out for engine compartment painting...but I think the change was pretty decent...my favorite part is the overlooked undercarriage...pretty clean with lots of new goodies under there...I mean...considering that the car is 46 year old...lol...

                    I am dying to try one of those sandwiches but they don't offer them at the KFC's here in PR
                    They said it is only a U.S. thing

                    Mr. Spock: "I am not aware of anyone who fits that description, Captain"
                    Capt. Kirk: "No, Mr. Spock, I didn't think you would be"

                      Man, I think it's the best fast food ever. I mean, come on, two breasts with bacon and cheese in between. I wish I could get a double!

                              Nice car. I've always loved old Mopars. Had my share of them.

                                That type of condition makes it a very desirable car for the barret jackson crowd. if you know the provenance and have verifed title history that even makes it more valuable nice car bud
