20 yrs ago today the Mustang was registered for the first time in Australia after a full rotisserie restoration and has been on full rego since. Its not perfect but its mine. And like I say Driven not Hidden. Check the rego cost 20yrs apart. I was 1 day out from the rego lining up on the same date. I've owned it since 1988 and was painted in 1996.

What size tyres are you running on the back Louis?

They fill out the guards nicely.

Beautiful looking car mate and love the colour, I see you have crimp fittings on the AC hoses, did you do this yourself and any issues with the crimps?

Hi Neil.
David from Cruzin-Air did my setup and that's what he uses, the system has only been fitted for 3 months.
