Troys fine toys, A comment.
« on: November 24, 2018, 05:10:31 AM »
Hello Folks

As some of you know I dabble in classic Mustangs here in Europe. I am American by birth and both my parents were avid Mustang fanatics. We always had one or two Mustangs in the garage. At the time of my mothers passing I was left funds which allowed me to leave my job and take on the mantle I was born for. Importing and selling Mustangs. To say its a passion does not do it justice

Anyway, the reason of this post is to tell about a great supplier. I have bought approx 150 Mustangs in the states and imported them over the past three years. Some sellers are honest, some are evasive, some are downright dishonest. A VERY SELECT few would I send money without question for a car they have offered to me. Troy of Troys fine toys is one of about 3 that I would do that.

The first car he sold me was so out of control nice it never got offered for sale. An insanely nice GT350 replica.

A few months ago he asked if I wanted another, A 68 Mustang, he sent some photos, we negotiated for about half a day and I bought

I am not very happy, why? Because the damn thing is so good its another I may have to keep. Paint is flawless, Body is flawless, interior....oh man!!!

He gave me chapter and verse about its condition, its driving habits and its few foibles (that I have yet to see myself :-) )

This car was the first we have ever had come in that needed zero electrical repair. My electrics guy was laughing as he came back from the tests "Even the alternator is chucking out the right charge"

Thanks Troy! and to anyone considering a purchase from him, I cant give higher praise.

Cheers. Peter

Peter, same car?   I've met Troy various times at our Conventions and find he's a really nice guy.    His photography is second to none.

For all you euro guys I can vouch for Peter to be a good guy to buy from. I went here in SoCal and looked at a couple Mustangs for him. He's very picky and won't buy a marginal car. Of the 2 I looked at he only bought one. The other was just as nice but heavy undercoating left some questions as what it may be hiding so that one was a pass.

Very kind of you to say and I appreciated your help tremendously

The crap that is out there is unbelievable. The lengths people go to inorder to hide issues...it would be easier to do the job correctly.
