]Jim and Taylor's Red Coupe

Purchased in April 2003, Tommy is Jim & Taylor Cassidy's 1999 35th Anniversary Limited Edition Mustang! Found in a used car lot in Portland, Tommy was acquired for an impossible to pass up price and brought home to live with them. Since he had been pretty abused by his previous owners, some repairs were in order to return him to the condition intended by the Ford Motor Company. First, Tommy was fitted with new Yokohama tires and a new Mach 460 stereo system. He was then taken to fellow Mustangs West club member Bruce Ward of Tumwater Collision for some body repairs. After fixing a couple of small dents and replacing the rear bumper cover, Bruce sprayed the factory Performance Red paint to match the rest of the car.

To round out the cosmetic refurbishing, new fog lights and new headlights were added while the front bumper cover was off of the car. Other repairs included a cold air intake system, new chrome radiator hoses, a set of 3:73 gears, and Taylor's signature exhaust system! Future plans call for a Paxton engine/fuel management system and a Novi 2000 supercharger.

Now for the history of the car. Tommy was originally sold in Portland, Oregon as a company car (man, do we all work for the wrong company! ) He stayed in their possession until 2002 when he was sold to a gentleman in Milwaukee, Oregon. His current stable belongs to Jim & Taylor, the third owners of this sweet pony.

Tommy is also fitted with every available option for this car. He has an automatic transmission, traction control, Convenience Group, rear window defroster, cruise control, 6-way power seat, Mach 460 stereo, and the Smokers Package.

 

 

 

 

A great quote

"An almost stock Mustang could brain-smash a winged-up, fart-can-fitted front-wheel-drive latter-day pretender from the land of the rising sun until its "bling" ran red in the streets"
