No, no - that one was an 84 and a sure fire gonner.





The one in the first post is an 86 I picked up about 1 month after the accident. I was pretty messed up with the head injury and when my wife wasn't paying attention I bought three more SVO's.

The 1E (Silver) and the 2R (Jalipeno Red) can be seen at http://forced4.com/cproject.html

I sold the 86 2A (best of the three) to an enthusiast in NJ a few months ago.

The 2R makes a good sleeper. Looks like ass but as it sits is about 230HP and 300 lbs ft of torque. I'll dyno it in the next week or two to be sure. Need to do a few things to the body and set the timing first. I'll go crazy with the video camera once it's where I like it. It's in the shop getting subframe connectors and the rear end rebuilt.

Yeah all I remembered was the red stang, but yeah it looks like it would take a bit of work to repair that back even to drivable conditions.

good to hear the accident didn't discourage your enthusiasm for speed.

My parents brought me home an old, ugly, white, Chevy Celebrity when I got my permit.They got it so when I practiced parallel parking, if I hit anything it wouldn't matter. I only got in it a couple of times to practice parking in my driveway, then I told them that I refused to drive anything but a Mustang that was a 2000 or up. So like 2wks later they brought me home my baby, and one thing I've learned is that She only really likes nice weather, so I think I'll Break out the Chevy and slide it into a few things this winter.

You must have nice parents to buy you a car much less a mustang! To be frank if my daughter pulls a stunt like that with me in 3yrs she'll be walking or taking the bus
