Jimmy,
Sorry it took me so long to respond/say hello. Good to see you back!
Yes, the old group is/seems to be down to just some remaining stranglers. Do miss the old days of barely being able to keep up with all the traffic/postings.
I no longer own a Fox body. I had a good 24 year run with those [two] cars -- '87 LX 5.0 and '93 Cobra through. Now I have an '11 GT. You could probably guess how I ordered it -- colors and options.
As for your Mustang, yes, replace all the lights/lenses. It will really renew the look of the car.
How's the Z/28 doing? Got any performance numbers to share?
