Was looking for disk brake parts for the 65 FB when I first got it and ran across info on Mustang Steve having a good set-up to use the Granada stuff. Got all the stuff to do the Granada thing but saw what MS was doing with the Cobra stuff and decided to wait for that.

Pretty much been here from the beginning. I had been frequenting a Mustang forum for a while, and was getting frustrated with all the childish postings that were being made when someone tried to ask a legitimate question. There was one poster who seemed quite knowledgeable about giving some really good answers to most questions. He let on that he was starting his own forum about classic Mustangs, so I went over there......and the rest is history. He called himself MustangSteve and his forum has been, hands down, the best one on the internet. His great knowledge attracted other very knowledgeable Mustang people who weren't into the childish stuff, and through him and his equally committed and sage Mustanger admins, they have created the best resource on the internet for all things Mustang. I can also proudly say that I attended the first MustangSteve Birthday Bash in Carrolton Texas. I would have won the prize for travelling the farthest (Seattle) but I was blown away by Hakan who came all the way from Sweden! I still have my original MS BB t-shirt, too.

Barry routinely wins long distance award, but so far the LONGEST DISTANCE DRIVEN IN A CLASSIC MUSTANG has been elusive.

I was looking for information about a doing a restoration and I posted where do I start. My Good buddy Bullet Bob said with capitalization and punctuation!!!! Lol 😂 I responded well as I type you will find I speak Cajun Ebonics I figured that will let him know who I am lol. Then I saw 6sal6 post and I said I fit right in best bunch of gear heads on the planet. It lead me to my Brother Glen and Steve Buzek who’s not to far from my home and sellls Mustang Parts. Most Saturdays we all have breakfast at the shop.If it was up to me I would have ripped  it apart and put it back together. Instead I been riding having a good time in a unrestored 65 coupe. I was able to convince Felicia into me buying a 2015 GT for when I start restoring it we would still have a ride and the GT just sits as we continue riding in the old coupe 😂 as the Bash family gets bigger and bigger each year we look forward to making the bash trips Pray all is well !!!! As for punctuation I am still working on it. At this point I don’t think it will ever get restored I keep fixing it  just to make it to the next bash 😂

I thought BB-2 won it at FWB in '17.  Bakersfield to FWB had to be a winner.  Hell, he and I drove farther to come to Waco than most Bash trips.

Bought my 65 in ‘99 so probably 2000 when i was doing the Granada swap.  Then came the T5 cable clutch period....then came the EFI period....

As I recall, 2017 Florida bash was cut short by a hurricane. Had we had time to hand out awards, Bearing Bob would have surely won the driven category for distance, but all we saw of him was two taillights heading west about as quickly as he got there! I don’t think his engine ever had time to cool down before heading home!

Oh yeah, that's right.  In fact his tail lights were right behind mine.
 

Maybe 6 or 7 years ago was looking for was looking for front disc brake swap. Keep going back to MS web page comparing his brackets to other kits. Liked the fact he sold the brackets and let you know what parts you were using with them. Never bought those brackets from him, at least not the front. Found a set on E-bay someone bought and never used. Got them for $40 I think, they were the older aluminum ones. 

I found the forum in 2002/2003 ish maybe when I was working on disc brake swap ideas and integral power steering box ideas and homemade power window ideas from auto salvage parts.

Ended up with A1 power windows, borgeson power steering box, and of course Mustang Steve cobra conversion and power brake parts.  Although I'm convinced Bergeron got the idea from me on here and ran with it, with the brains, tooling, and equipment I lack.

Sometimes the result is finding what was well researched and works and going with it.

I ACQUIRED MY MUSTANG RIGHT AFTER MY DAD PASSED AWAY IT WAS HIS
AND BEGAN RESTORING IT. I GOOGLED HOW TO REPLACE COWL AND IT LINKED ME TO THE FORUM WHERE PEOPLE WERE DETAILING HOW TO DO IT. I ENDED UP FLYING TO TEXAS TO THE FIRST BASH AND EVENTUALLY HAVING THE 3RD BASH IN CARROLLTON GEORGIA. I THINK I STARTED POSTING IN 2001 0R S0.

I joined in April of this year, 2 years after I got my first Mustang. I have meet some very knowledgeable and nice people on this site. I check in almost every day and I am planning to make it to the bash in 2020 if all goes as planned. A drive across the USA in a classic 65 mustang, what could be better? Want to see friends in GA, Myrtle Beach Bash, NC, NY, WS,IO, MT and maybe the largest ball of twine just for kicks.
