GREG NICHOLS
Mustang enthusiasts have asked for a magazine that has no ads, no sales pitches, and no bogus “fillers” to eat up space. They have asked for a magazine that is free, easy to access, and nothing but focused on Mustang pictures and content. They have asked for a magazine produced and written by Mustang owners. They have asked for a magazine that highlights the daily drivers and the average Mustang that is driven and is not a trailer queen. They have asked for the chance to one day have their ride, their group, their club, or their cause to be recognized in print or online. It is our absolute pleasure to meet these standards and to give you STANG Magazine. We hope that both our message and our image will be seen in every Mustang community out there. Thank you Mustang fans and enjoy your ride! -

GREG NICHOLS LEAD STEED - 2007 MUSTANG GT
CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO
GREY BY DAY, BLACK BY NIGHT.
MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!
This is my 2007 Mustang GT aka “Lead Steed.” My Instagram handle is @Leadsteed. “Lead” because the color Alloy Metallic, is similar to the heavy metal lead. Plus I can be a bit of a “Lead-Foot” as well! This color is always loved as many people comment and say they’ve not seen it very often. Grey by day, Black by night.
My wife and I love to take drives with the top down. I love rowing through the gears and my wife is always happy to be shotgun. It’s our outlet and our happy place. I’ve been married for 30 years this year. One wife, but many, many cars, with over 60 to date. This is my 4th Mustang. I’ve owned all Mustang GT convertibles. I love learning about each platform, from SN95, S550, and now my S197.
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!
Some of the upgrades I love about my Mustang include the OEM 2013 Shelby GT500 staggered Track Pack wheels. Also the 2012 Mustang GT Brembo front brakes. What I love the most is the sound. It’s loud and turns heads. I’m running BBK long-tube headers, hi-flo cats, BBK X-pipe, and Borla Attak axle back. In the next month I’m super excited about installing Ford Racing cams. This will give me some added horse-power and that famous 3V chop-chop.
My Mustang looks so beautiful due to the ceramic coat and paint correction, done by IG @itsdetaildrivenniagara in St. Catharines Ontario Canada.
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.
