I had a 1973 with a 351 Cleveland in it. It was a great car not the same body style but I have always liked the mustangs. Just not practical for me right now to many other toys like a boat four wheeler and mulitple Henrys. Very neat car. Al

Thanks for the pics, TGR. That really is a beautiful car! And, I'm sure it went to a good home -- one with a garage!!!

Here is video of 2011 mustang going from 0 to 160 in under 26 second . My mustang was a little faster . I could go from 0 to 170 in 26 second and like the video I use only 5 of the 6 gears too . My red line was 7,500 at 170 mph and my car needs a splitter for more down force on front and taller rear wing to drive faster then 170 mph .

Nice looking ride .....My car was less then 3 mo's old . When I cut the hole in hood out for the Shaker system . I was going to super charge the engine but the Coyote engine ran so good with only a few upgrades I didn't think the supercharger was needed anymore . . I should have got a convertible like yours and maybe I wouldn't have got the Miata .

Your hood was setup for that Shaker Scoop . Here is the piece I cutout and you can see the 2 braces I cut out .
