The UK American Car Magazine did a feature on a 72 Mach 1 a few months back and asked if there was any love for the "aircraft carrier" Mustang. Thought I'd pitch in.

Aircraft carrier? Pffffft! A cruiser is a more apt term, being a bit smaller than a carrier, but larger than a oiler...

 
They talk about how big the hoods are on our cars.
Someone recently remarked how long the hood is on my '73, but I believe the 1970 - 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo still holds the world record for "longest hood on a production vehicle".

 
They talk about how big the hoods are on our cars. The BMW Z-3 roadster was so big only one steel mill in the world could make the steel large enough to stamp it in Japan. The hood was also the top of the fenders.

Great you stood up for our herd.
If you check out the Jaguar XJS you will be surprised just how much they are the same. Even down the length of the bonnet
