    Yes, I get it. My GMC Yukon has 212,000 miles. If the rust molecules quit holding hands, it would fall apart. I call it my airplane truck - picked it up cheap mostly to haul arplanes around without taking the wings off. Two Mustangs 52 years apart - that's something.

      Hey 70sflyer, welcome to the forum!
      She'll make you a believer! Especially if you have an 'incident' then you'll find out just how tough they really are, easily repairable, check out the 'worst crashes' thread

                                    It must have been Santa that kept whispering to me in my dreams, T 45 you want the T 45. So that's what fell from this ride! :-) along with an inrunner upgrade fan unit!
