Selling V6 Show Quality Mustang!

2008-05-28T16:42:31Z

It's official...this striking V6 is up for sale. Family obligations are too hectic these days to enjoy it, and I have no time to show it like I used to, so it just sits in the garage. It's finally time to part ways with this headturner that's graced magazines and newspapers. The only toys I'm handling these days are the ones I'm cleaning up off the floor from my little girls.

I'm open to any reasonable offers. Please note, you will have to come and pick the car up. I'm located in Baltimore county, Maryland. Please email me directly with any questions. frank28@comcast.net

Thanks!

Ocean City Car Show June 9-10

2007-06-06T09:50:14Z

The Ocean City Car Show is June 9-10 at the Ocean City Convention Center in Ocean City, MD. If anyone plans on being there, please stop by my car display and say "hi." I'll be indoors again and expect to have some new trick modifications on the vehicle, including my newest mod: the entire back seat area has been turned into a one-of-a-kind fiberglass shell holding four subwoofers, two 7" LCD monitors...and an Xbox 360. I'll also be promoting my newest sponsor: Vintage Clothing Limited. www.vintagelimited.com

In Him,

Need a Good "Niche" Insurance Company to Cover my Stang

2007-01-12T16:48:11Z

Just wondering if anyone knows of or works with a good insurance company that is capable of handling modified late model Mustangs without flinching or charging an arm and a leg. Since my claim, my insurance company took one look at the pics of my car and decided they wanted to drop me because the car was "significantly modified." Even though the modifications had nothing to do with my claim, they've decided black and white is always better than personalized service. Isn't that cute? No doubt when I find new coverage, I'm pulling all my business away from them. So now, I'm looking for alternatives. I have a clean driving record and no moving violations. Any ideas?

Thanks!

At it Again!

2006-09-01T14:58:53Z

Just wanted to remind you all that my book is still on sale and discounted before October 1st. If you haven't had a chance, pick up a copy and support a local stanger in his craft

-------------------------

For those of you who don't know, I dabble in poetry from time to time. No, this isn't the cheesey kind of Hallmark verse you find at your local cardstore, but the provocative, metaphysical verse that makes you question if there's more to life than that Mustang you're driving.

One of my passions is for the written word. And I've published a ton of poetry, book reviews, articles, social commentary, etc. Yes, I'm a man of letters and my poetry is very much in line with contemporary poetics and what's pushing the envelope of creativity and literary trend.

Anyways, my second chapbook is out and available through Main Street Rag Publishing Company, one of the largest publishers in the Southeast U.S. It's entitled "No Shadow of Turning."

So if you've ever thought of picking up anything other than a Mustang magazine to read, you can now say you know the guy who wrote this book!

Until September 15th, pre-orders for the book are only $6.00, less than a meal at McDonalds and guaranteed to get you thinking!

Go to: www.mainstreetrag.com/store/ComingSoon.php

So order your copy today and support a fellow stanger in his craft!

Much love,

Saw a 2007 Shelby Cobra yesterday!

2006-07-28T15:35:26Z

Saw the first of I'm sure will be a few '07 Shelby Cobras on the way to work yesterday morning. It was all black with white racing stripes and was coming the opposite way I was going at the intersection. The badging looked correct...so unless someone had a kit car, I would say this was an authentic 07 Cobra! Now, if I would actually drive my Mustang sometime, I could have waved at him, but since it lives in the shop these days, I could only stare like some star-struck kid.

check out my new headunit

2006-07-05T09:02:32Z

This is the new JVC EXAD KD-AV1 headunit I just purchased to replace the poor quality Blaupunkt headunit I received through my "sponsorship." Anyways, this thing is fabulous. Has a small LCD screen right on the faceplate and plays DVDs and can act as a second video source for my car with the Playstation 2. You can also name your discs so that they appear on the screen as they are playing (sorry, that might be old news but I've never had anything like that).

Anyway, this pushes the number of LCD screens in my car to 8 (just put a 7 inch custom fiberglassed into a bezel in the trunk compartment) with one more on the way. I think I'm done after this cause I don't want to make the ICE too overly obnoxious...and I know I'm headed in that direction if I'm not careful.

The Real Scoop on the Discovery Channel Shoot

2006-06-26T15:37:48Z

So I get down to Silver Spring today at the Discovery Channel headquarters. About 30 tuner cars show up...far cry from the 75 they were anticipating. Some guy named Andy Goodman from the NCCA (National Custom Car Association) comes out with a camera man and has us all start riding around the building. We do it in waves, as he pulls some of us to the side and shoots the cars up close. They got a lot of film of my car. So still no one really knows what's going on, but there is a rumor that two of the drivers go inside and the Discovery channel has no idea what's going on. Then I hear another rumor that the CEOs (probably not, but someone from within the Discovery channel) comes down and either tells Goodman and his boy to stop filming or invites them in. When all is said and done, some the drivers find their way into a large conference room with Goodman and some other guy. At the front of the room is the producer for the Discovery Channel, another man who is involved in some kind of broadband production, and a lady who appears to be an assistant. As we're escorted in and I begin to hear what they are talking about, another rumor is confirmed which I heard just before I entered: Goodman and his buddy have no affiliation with the Discovery Channel. Instead they are "pitching" not "shooting" a pilot and we were the bait. As this Goodman and his dapper friend talk, they act like everyone in the room knows what's going on, as if they driver's were told all this in the beginning. Meanwhile, everyone I talked to thought we were doing a commercial or pilot for a show that had already been given the go ahead. But the information we got specifically said we would be shooting a Discovery channel pilot. Basically, I felt dupped. The "film" we shot for all I know could end up in somebody's closet. On the other hand, if we're extremely lucky (in my opinion) the Discovery Channel may do something with it. They are talking about launching some kind of Web-based programming, but all is up in the air right now. The whole experience fell woefully short of what we were led to believe. I can't stand dishonesty. And I can't stand people who give you only half of the information or paint the picture in such a way that they give themselves enough wiggle room out of it. In closing, some very trusting people took off work today, lost wages, took vacation time, to come down and have some dudes take some film of their cars for which there is absolutely no guarantee anything will happen. I understand that is true of "pilots" - not everyone of them sees TV time. On the other hand, when you make it sound like you've already bagged a deal, you're a liar in my book. Don't know what to make of this experience. I have mixed feelings and this is why I haven't called the person who invited us. I did end up walking out of the meeting so I never heard what transpired, partly because I could only scrounge up two quarters for parking and didn't want to leave Silver Spring with nothing to show for except a 75.00 parking violation.
