MY PASSION FOR MUSTANGS STARTED WHEN I WAS 18 YEARS OLD AND THE FIRE IS STILL BURNING AS STRONG AS EVER AT 50.

MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!

My passion for Mustangs started when I was 18 years old and the fire is still burning as strong as ever at 50. This car caught my eye five years ago and I always mentioned to the owner if you ever sell it please let me know. Fast forward a year later and I got that call. I jumped on it and bought it immediately and I’ve been modding it and enjoying it ever since.

Probably the best highlight of my entire life was at Mustang Week 2022. Saleen was looking for Mustangs to display at their booth and I immediately called Mike Clay of Mustang Week and he informed me if I were to be selected to display under the canopy/car hauler my car would not be judged. For a Saleen diehard like myself it was a no-brainer so I showed up early that morning and when they picked four Saleens to go under the canopy, mine was one of the four. To say I was ecstatic would be an understatement. To top that off, the leg- end Steve Saleen was there and we got the chance to talk and he signed the dash on #1269! That was far better than any trophy in my eyes.

If you asked me if I thought I’d be writing an article for STANG Magazine for my car this time last year I would’ve said no. If you asked me if I would be writing it about a different car than the 2005 Roush Mustang I had I would’ve said hell no. I loved that car but acquiring this one reinvigorated my passion for car shows and events!

I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.

Mods include a Brenspeed Stage 3 HP Package, 3.2 SC pulley (11.5 psi), Kenne Bell boost a pump, MSD Blaster coils, JLT CAI, SCT custom tune, Ford Racing 3.55 G, Magnaflow exhaust, Pypes off-road H pipe, Pedders Extreme XA coilovers, Sigala Designs carbon fiber front splitter, Sigala Designs carbon fiber side splitters, Sigala Designs carbon fiber rear diffuser, Axial smoked HID headlights, Raxiom Gen 5 tail lights, and Dyna Performance DynaCarbon Fiber interior.

The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!

Members of the STANG Mag family are more passionate about fun and inclusion than they are their cars and that says a lot! I can’t wait to see what’s to come in 2022!
