Isn't there still grain elevators off of Hiawatha/Minnehaha in South Minneapolis?

Yep that's still there, 1/2 block off hwy 55/ 41st and Hiawatha Ave. Believe it or not there are some 100K$ condo/apartments kity corner from those grain elevators now. The lumber company that was there moved because the land was worth more then the business. The McDonalds right across the train tracks has been there for ever.

We don't have that white castle on 36th and lake any more. It's a Tim Hortons now..

Only one of the best Mustang shows in the country LOL.

I keep telling you that you need to hit up Fabulous Fords Forever with us. Maybe in a few years after MBTB is gone you and Vickie can make the trip out for that one. It's in April so the beach weather would be better for her. And you could cruise up with us to the show.

Yeah, I might have to do that Bob. April is still before the vacation season, so the beaches shouldn't be that crowded either. And you can never go wrong going on vacation to attend a Mustang show LOL.

What made you ask that? It's a Mustang show. The name of it is Mustangs by the Bay.
A lot of Mustangs go to the Corvette club sponsored show in the same location every year so I thought I'd ask. I just got another Terminator this past March so looking forward to going to more Mustang/Ford events like the old days. This is my 8th Mustang and 4th Cobra. Which BTW just got out of the shop after a fellow dropped his tree stump in front of me on the FWY...

I'm sorry to hear that. It looks good though. I didn't know about the Corvette show there. I did know about the Camaro show that goes on within the same time frame. I really only do two Ford specific shows a year. This one and then FFF in April. I've been going to a show in Palm Springs the last couple of years that's pretty fun. Lots of different cars. And this upcoming weekend is another show put on by a local club in Escondido.

That's exactly why my Wife always tells me she never follows trucks with S#!T in the back. People don't know how to secure their stuff.

Your car looks great. Not sure if it's the pictures, but are your Cobra fender emblems facing backwards????

7.15 in the 1/8th so probably bottom 11’s if I went the distance. They were running a 7.0 index deal, made it to the semi’s.

That’s awesome, what suspension are you running? What RPM are you launching at?....I still haven’t figured it out lol.

UPR k member, foxbody strange 10 ways front and back coil overs. UPR double adjustable uca lca, spherical dif bushings, cutsom lca brackets. And my buddy who knows how to set it up. As for launching rpm, I change every time anywhere from 4000-5500. Only have 3 passes on the RXT and it reacts way different than the RST. On that launch it bogged horribly.

Thanks! Trust me I never follow gardening trucks I can see.. I was in a FWY transition when the stump dropped off and a Lexus SUV cut me off..when it cleared I had a 4 foot tall tree stump a few feet away. Funny I don't know how I missed it but I noticed while posting the pics the Cobras are reversed! That's tomorrows fix..

Thanks! I haven't had a car to take to Ford/Mustang shows in 10 years so every time I'd take my Laguna Blue Miata to the BTB show I longed for another Terminator... Next year I'll hit 2 to 4.. I had the Vert at the Steve McQueen show this past June..great show!

My Cobras were like that when I picked my SB up back in 2010. No accident damage that me or anyone else could find and the badges had the factory tape still. Didnt like the quality of the replacements I bought (no guide pins) so I just swapped them around with some new tape. Pretty sure I read here that some came like that from the factory.

I hear you. Sometimes you just don't have time to react. Something in the street, Car A reacts and Car B just can't react in time and boom. Sorry you went through that, but your car looks great now.

I have never heard that. Pretty interesting. Wonder if it was just a factory mix up or disgruntled employee? LOL...

I'm not sure what part of SoCal you're in, but if you're local you should hit up the show on Saturday. It's at Gosch Ford in Escondido. There's usually a decent turn out.

I'm in Corona but my kids are in SD so I'm there a lot.. Damn if my niece wasn't getting married in Redlands I'd be there. Yearly show?
