What did you do with your Z today IV

m4a1mustang · 07-29-2012, 07:34 AM

Hi guys. I've been out for a while but I should be back for now.

Some big changes coming for me. As you know when I hit the 2 year mark I start to get tired of my cars, regardless of how good they are. So, within the next couple weeks I am going to start parting out the 5.0 to prep it for sale. I hope I can get everything sold within 3 months.

Since I am looking to buy a house I will not replace it with anything until I have a garage to put it in. No clue what I will want when that time comes, but I can tell you I am looking forward to driving the S2000 on the daily. I just need to get a set of summer wheels/tires and put winter tires on the OEM wheels and I will be good to go.

I think I will go through this winter with the convertible top and a cover and then decide if I want to get a hard top.

Also, the gun show is in town this weekend and yesterday I got a great deal on a Springfield Armory 1911 Range Officer. This lousy cell pic does not do it any justice:

It's really a beautiful gun and handles very well. It has a 5" match barrel, trigger job, and adjustable target sights. It's super accurate... a tack driver.

I am watching the F1 race right now, but I might leave shortly to hit the range.

I weighed my range bag... it comes in at almost 100 lbs, so i have been getting some great exercise lugging it around this weekend.

Morning, Mr. Mustang. The 1911 you have there is a great gun and one of my favorites. Have yourself a great day.

I love how the 1911 has two safeties!

Nice looking piece, Steve!

Just got back in town. Had an enjoyable drive back 'til the GPS directed us onto a major highway. I've got to be honest here: there are times that I don't want to be crammed in like sardines at 80mph. I'll take 65mph on wide open stretches with a view any day!
