Mustang has way more potential for speed
then the Shoestring.

Plus, if you go with WM, you'll have your choice of 4 different color schemes!

I had the yellow one with a ST .90/pitts muffler....an awesome combo!

Status: offline 		I am running a OS1.08 I have another oS 1.08 in that GSP P51 you may have seen floating around here. They are very reliable.

I have pictures on a roll I'll be getting developed this week sometime. I recovered in a red/white/blue thing. Loks good but when I was done i realized it looks darn near like a Texas state flag. Oh well, mistakes happen.
