Sorry - I have happily "buried" any feelings for my 1st car. It was the '70 Fastback listed below. Although it had an awesome 351 Cleveland 4bbl, it practically no options, it's black vinyl interior was dang hot during the summer (no A/C in So Cal), and every exterior panel it seemed had been smacked while owned by people previous to me (bondo everywhere). The LR quarter panel had been previously replaced in a sloppy manner - such that side of the car was 3/4 inch narrower compared to the other. The distance between the left taillight bezel and the fender "cap" was nonexistant and the LR tire rubbed on the fender lip whenever I carried anybody in the back seat. The interior had been hacked up for stereo speakers, including 2 "extra" holes in the front inner door panels because some music store jockey had saw cut the bottom metal panel of the door only to find there was no depth in that location due to the window support channel. Both front shock towers were cracked meaning it needed some significant stucture repairs. The only thing nice about it was being totally rust free and I loved the color I had it painted in. I loved the fastback styling, but I always lusted over a Mach 1 or Boss 302 during most of my ownership.

My 2006 V6 Mustang is just about as quick, is much more fun to drive, has many, many options including an awesome sound system and A/C, much better seats and twice the fuel economy. And I know it's complete history having ordered it from the factory and it not having even a ding in it.


2012 Mustang Boss 302 #1918, Competition Orange. FGF replacement
2006 Mustang V6 Pony, Vista Blue. Factory ordered.
2019 BMW X3 (Titled to the wife, but I'm always driving it for her. So I'm claiming it)
Old projects, gone but not forgotten:
1967 FB 400, original CA car. After 22 years of work, trashed by the guy who was supposed to paint it. I had to sell it.
1980 Turbo Trans Am
1970 Mustang fastback, 351C 4Bbl, auto
1988 Mustang GT, 5 speed
1983 F-150 4x4, built 302
1994 Chevy K2500 HD 4x4, 454 TBI
