Hey Solid Steel Stang you must be pretty close to me, I am in Four Oaks. Tell me a little about your car maybe I've seen you cruising around town?

Cool, I work in Cary. I have two 66 Mustangs in progress in my garage. Thursday night seems to be the big night at the Benson track, did you go out there?
