How it all started...

Classic or iconic cars have always had my interest. Simply because often they are just works of art. They are the "they don't make 'm like that no more" type of car. Beautiful and/or powerful. But I never had my license so never really thought about buying my own some day.

So, many years ago when I lived in Australia and where I got my first driver's license, I visited a "Show and shine" where I fell in love with this Mustang:

I had no clue about Mustangs at the time, now I know it's a '73 Mach 1.

I moved back to Amsterdam and today I flipped through some old photos and came across this Mustang again and I posted on Facebook that one day when I was "big enough" I'd get one and an old friend (Marco Drost - Thanks!) said "well, you may not wanna wait much longer coz you are pretty big already". "Big" referring to my age btw ;-)

This made me think. I had some money and I figured what good is money in the bank? And I felt I deserved something nice after the last couple of years. And also, I just got my license and what good is a license without a car? And if you're gonna get a car, it's gotta be something awesome in MY opinion...

So I want to get and keep/restore a Mustang. And that's what this blog is about, hope you like it :-)

PS: I do not actually have my Dutch license yet, but will have that soon! ;-)
