THOMAS ARNAO CASPER - 2008 MUSTANG GT/CS

CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO

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

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.

MY 2008 MUSTANG CALIFORNIA SPECIAL IS THE MOST FUN AND COMFORTABLE MUSTANG I HAVE OWNED.

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

The Mustang was my first car at the age of 15. It was a 1968 Fastback with a 289 automatic, followed by a real 1969 Boss 302 Yellow and Black. By the time I was 18 I owned a Mustang/Cougar restoration shop. Now at the age of 63 I’ve owned over 100 Ford Mustangs, Cougars, Mavericks, and Torino cars. My 2008 Mustang California Special is the most fun and comfortable Mustang I have owned. It is absolutely amazing with the top down cruising.

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!

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

My 2008 Mustang California Special Convertible current mods include Ford Racing cams, Ford Racing throttle body, injectors, Pypes full stainless exhaust, 4:10 rear, racing clutch, tune, Ford Racing suspension, Billstein struts, shocks, short throw shifter, Tonneau cover, and a few other goodies.

I served proudly in the United States Army as a Chemical Specialist with Honorable Discharge.
