Never been driven in the snow either..

I tore apart an 07 F-350 a few years ago, 35,000 miles on it...put new front bumper and a fender on it...the inner structure under the fender had holes in it from rust...it was only 2 years old.

Got rid of my 99 F150 last May, bought it new. Bottom of driver's door was starting to bubble up. The frame cross rail under the bed, above the spare tire was almost entirely rotted out. Went out that weekend and traded it for an 05 E150.

[DOOM]

So much going on over there!

Will you have enough time to get your blower on your Marauder before April? :D

[martyo]

Nice!!!!!!!!

LMAO! Do you realize its been almost 2 months since you said that to me???? I was wondering how long before I heard something about a blower again...how many times must I say...NO, no blowers for me! I will however take as many rides as I can in boosted cars while we are in Louisville!!!!!!

You know your going to wear down on this, right? Cant wait for the start of your whipple thread :)

I had a car that I kept outside during the winter months (did not drive) and had a car cover on it and it looked worse then that mustang. I really believe the temp changes along with moisture just collecting on the underside of these cars does a ton of damage. You wouldnt think it would but it does.

Is the hood scoop functional on that Boss?

Yes, its a Motorsports product. Very nice. The scoop is actually aluminum.

[lji372]

tell me your repainting down there

[Bigdogjim]

See S/C the marauder and use that hood scoop:up: Win/win:)

[RoyLPita]

Find someone up there with the V6 and sell them the take off exhaust.

In fact, find someone with the 2011 and up 5.0 who would want a resonator delete and louder mufflers.

Here's some more pics as we go!

If I were a betting man, which I'm not because I like Da Bears and Da Cubs, I would have bet a Boss would have fo' 10's right out the factory gate.

Ya, almost, the real BOSS mustangs come with 3.73's. The GT's for awhile have come with 3.31 stock with 3.55 and 3.73 being available atleast since 2011. not sure they offered too much in 2010 because Ford knew they were about to change alot when they introduced the new 5.0 later that year.

2010 Mustang GTs had the same gear ratio options as 2011. 3.73 gears were only available on the 2008 and 2009 Bullitt GTs.

ok, was not sure if 2010 offered the 3.55 and 3.73 option as well like the 12's and since.

I was just about to say! my 97 danger ranger doesnt even have rust like that :eek:

[Baaad GN]

Thats Mid west rust! Comes free of charge just like tax's.

[Baaad GN]

Hey we better have some S H I X'ssss in Louisville!

I knew about them when I was with Ford and "bookworming" the brochures and magazines.

Was thinking the same thing. Wow, 2010 car has more rust than my 03 and I drive mine in the winter.

Suggestion for Curless - get this and spray it on for customer.

Gotta say you guys are making a huge deal out of the rust on the rear end...there is no rust anywhere else on any surface of the car. The rear end is bare from the factory, if you live anywhere near the ocean or water its gonna rust. Just funny to me, you southern boys and girls are spoiled...you need to work on a car that has 100,000 Michigan winter miles on it, and has never been maintained once. That will teach you what rust is!

Thats too much rust on the frame parts on the front end. $7 can of AMSOIL HD metal protect will stop it from rusting, protect it plus make it look better. If it was a chevy it'd be ok, not on a Boss Mustang! :D;)

I live 1.3 miles from the ocean, 4 minutes by car. I'd have a heart attack if I looked under any of my cars and saw that.

LMAO!!!! Seriously!!!! Too funny, we get a car in like this and we are so excited we don't know what to do! Then again, a five year old truck that gets driven in the winter needs the rockers and cab corners replaced up here!

They are American Muscle wheels, I actually invited him to come down to Louisville but he has a wedding to go to that weekend.

Wow, that's really cool, but you've got to lose those GT emblems!

All you need is a trans fluid leak and an oil leak like mine to keep the underbelly nice and smoove, lol.

You guys havent even seen rust yet......my 95 Jeep has sheet metal floorboards that i put in myself to patch the old ones from a 73 Cougar hood. I was driving in the rain one say as SPLOOOSSHHH water came flying inside and flooded my car about 2 inches. Gotta love Michigan......

Very happy with the results, she's a stock car, with the factory ram air hood scoop, PYPES long tube and no cats....300.9 to the ground! 60 Horsepower gain over stock. Lidio and his guys were awesome, very hospitable and open to share knowledge. I look forward to doing more with them in the future.
