    Options for Replacing Stock Radio

    As a life long Kenwood fan, I recommend the Kenwood DDX372BT. It's a double-DIN. Had mine for a few trouble-free years.

    1-Year of ownership

    The time has flown by, one year and 23604 miles later and I have owned my baby a year. Daily driven, or should I say constantly driven, stock except for a K&N FIPK, and still gets tons of attention. I still do the "look back" when I get out of it, the joy will never leave. :rockon: Peace

    Crate Engines

    For the past few days, I have been shopping for a replacement engine for my "Quarter million mile" 91 GT. I have seen such a huge difference in prices and specs. It looks like CCM has a good deal with their 1995.00 deal, but tonight I happened by Dallas Mustang and can get pretty much what I...
