What's first place you wanna drive to or do with your car once weather warms up?

Me, get my enclosed trailer pulled out of yard to get my car out of it. Gotta still do some maintainance to it, bleed brakes, detail front suspension. Re-connect my e-brakes after having it apart to rebuild my 4spd trans.

I have a loop I take my car on as the first drive....kind of a tradition for me...been doing the same loop for about 4 - 5 years now. Pretty much go up and down 113 along the Merrimack River
Although last year I did deviate a little by heading to Todd's house

Me, too! But it will be different this year. Since I'm installing an adjustable brake proportioning valve, my first drive will not be my loop but to some sandy parking lot to do some panic stops (starting with low speed ones!) to adjust the proportioning valve and make sure the ABS controller is fully bled out.

You saw the hint in his original post on "the other" forum! "HUM" It's a Hummer in drag. :D

Oh, wait! This is Dennis! I guess it was really just short for Humbug! :p

Or humBUG! Maybe it's that Turbo Beetle ED was saying he got.

Drive down to Boston for the first real drive of the season, then back to the garage and take the engine out. Then drive to Hawaii with the newly built engine, then up to Alaska to live

And I guess Dennis bought a Yugo Limo. Looks like the lines of a Yugo to me.

I don't think that's a Mustang... Hood's too high. Back deck is too low, and looks to be lacking a spoiler.

it's a mustang......can tell by the back the way it cuts off. Looks like it could be a 2011 + car. I see some silver poking out of the front lower corner.

I can also see the front wheels have a lip, the newer body styled mustangs are notorious for running front dished lipped wheels becuase of the offset.

I like this game, give us more clues.

after doing a quick google search, i have determined it is NOT a roush. They have round fog lights in the front lower bumper

That looks more like a saleen lower grill/bumper opening:

You are right about the wheels back have a 3 inch lip But low and be hold the wheels are far from stock or the tires Also the body has had some modifacations done to it It shows me that your not the experts I thought you were

this is fun Dennis, I am thoroughly enjoying this game.

Ok, well its not a terminator, that car under the cover is too big. So based on that little tidbit,

I think its either a boss 302:

Or a california specail GT:

Let me make a correction what you think is a light under the cover is one of the Brake scoops to cool the brakes And yes George you are correct about my love for the 2015 But it doesn't become ready for sale just yet There is the production number one that was sold a Barrett Jackson in January Thats the only one out there

Think they made ~ 11/12 of them to tour the country. But if you were to order one later this year, that would explain what you said about "maybe you won't see it for awhile".
I also thought of a Laguna Seca but front wrong.

first off, there was no actual mustang sold at Barrett Jackson. That blue one on the auction block was a pre-production model that's not being sold. The 300k price tag was rights to the fist production model to be made, production doens't start until the summer time

Ok, so based on Dennis latest clue we know its a Mustang, we know its probably a Shelby,Saleen or Roush product and it's at least 1 - 2 years old based on the mileage.
