Let's take a trip in the way-back machine, back when gas was under 30 cents and had lead in it!
And my mom drove a White 66 289 Mustang in 1968
She had that until she traded up for a Yellow n Black 73 Mach 1 with a 351 Cleveland backed by a C6. It was something indeed to drive that as a highschool kid. I walked on a dealer's lot summer of 87 and drove off with a 2.3L LX notchback it is still a daily driver 26 years and 380,000 miles later.
Summer of 96 I said to myself: I am going to buy a 5.0. Driving past a dealers lot I saw this 5.0 LX they said a Stewardess had traded it to them that morning for a new Mustang, and they gave me stuff about selling it as they'd not 'checked it out' I said whatever I'm not leaving without that car.
Wrote em a check for 12.5K and drove off with my:
1992 1/2 vibrant red limited edition "Summer Special" feature car.
I left out my first car 63 Falcon convertible and the awesome 73 Pinto 2.0L carburated 85 LX 2.3L notch Mustang, 94 4 banger Probe and a 98 Contour SVT that's int he driveway with a spun rod awaiting a Three Liter swap
Guess I'm a Ford man eh?
