Just Moved to Boston

[03snakenvtn]

Hey guys, my girlfriend and I just moved to Somerville from Tennessee so I'm looking to find some cool car (mustang or otherwise) guys and gals to meet up with at car shows and whatnot. I've got a silver 10th Anniversary Cobra with pulley/intake/exhaust, so finding some other cobras around would be great. I saw a black 03/04 on Beacon St. in Somerville a couple days ago, but that's the only one I've seen so far. I look forward to meeting up. By the way, you guys probably think it's been hot the last couple days, but I'm so thankful I'm not having to endure another Tennessee summer...

Welcome! The heat doesn't bother me its just the humidity. I have been to NC, TX and AZ in the Summer and I know how hot it can really get.

Where in Boston are you? I am about 20 minutes north of Boston.

 

[03snakenvtn]

My address is in Somerville but I'm essentially on the Somerville/Cambridge line. I'm a 5 minute walk to Porter Square on the red line.

There literally is a show or a crusie night every night of the week somewhere.

Good group of local guys can be found at smokingstangs.com

welcome. yah +1 on winter though. hope you can find yourself a nice little turd to drive around in cause that cobra wont go 2 feet and it it did it would prob be the last 2 feet of its life. Anyway yah there are tons of shows in the areas

 

[03snakenvtn]

Yeah I'm still trying to figure out whether I'm gonna park the Cobra under a car cover when there's snow in the forecast, or if I'm gonna get rid of it for something that isn't insanely dangerous on anything but dry pavement. Every time I go a few days without driving it it's like the first time I drove it though. It's gonna be like giving a kid up for adoption after 2 years.. ha.

Also, do any of you know if there are any decent aftermarket or tuning shops in the area? I'm looking for a job up here and I'm tired of doing jobs that I don't enjoy, so I'd really like to get into a job in the car business somehow (not selling cars, more like aftermarket parts and tuning side).

 

[PhLoBuS]

Hmm I have used Performance Dyno for tuning. People say Pro Tree Performance and Dez Racing are good shops. Never been to them but havent heard anything bad about em.

 

[notchstang92]

Performance Dyno in Concord NH is the only place to go for tuning around here. Pete knows how to keep these cars safe, reliable and making good power. I'm not the only one on here that will tell you this either. Pete doesn't really do any mechanical work though. He may swap a blower pulley for you, but anything really in depth like a cam swap or a blower swap I don't think he would do. Pro Tree would be a place that would probably do that for you. They have a pretty good reputation too.

Welcome to NE! Great place to live. There are plenty of nice stangs around as I'm sure you will see. Try and make it to some of the cruise nights if you can.

 

[SKEETER_SVT01]

Welcome. I recommend Dez Racing for everything. They are located in Seakonk.
