Mustangs in Guadalajara Mexico

I am in Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico visiting my very great friend I consider my brother.

By using the Facebook network I have Mustang acquaintances in this area.

I have been invited to a big Mustang event locally today!

Last night was a cruise in at a local Ford dealer. Very cool. Great people with a lot of love and respect for Fords and Mustangs! I got to actually meet some of my Mustang FB friends.

Jalisco Mustang Club



This tire/ wheel combo looked very good on this nicely modded 73 Mexican Mustang



I will post more as I can. Today is a large cruise - caravan. I'll try and get many pics!

Very cool.

I love the Sprint models in the 73 with the two tone paint. If any there take lots of pictures. Interior, exterior and engine. They are so different from the U.S. models.

Thanks for posting.

There are some VERY cool cars down in Mexico and I look forward to seeing pictures from the cruise and show. As Dave said the 73 Sprint editions are pretty cool!

I didn't see ANY 73 1/2 Mexican Sprints or any 71 or 72 GT-351's. I was sure hoping. But hey I am not done! Still trying to recouperate a little and get these pics posted to my Smugmug account so I can just share a link!

Ray,

Tequila will do that to a man slows you down some, lol. Enjoy the trip and be safe.

That's why they call it 'To-kill-ya'

Lots of pics! Amateur photographer disclaimer:

Many of these pics suck! And there are probably duplicates.

Ray,

What's the story behind the 68 green convertible that was unveiled?

A 73 Saleen Mustang??

The 68 conv and the 81-ish Mercury Capri were just two new members' cars. That is how they formally welcome new members to the club. It is a celebration as their cars are isolated/covered then into'd to the members. Different but kinda cool.

You mean the blue/white Mustang? The guy claimed it was one of the first Saleen Mustangs. I researched later and found Saleen only built three in 1984 but that car appears to be a 1983. :whistling:

the white 1973 fastback saleen........... look at the black decal on the back.

Yeah I remember that one now. It was parked outside the drag strip area. Like someone had it but didn't want it in the show. I guess it was just someone's mods on a 73. Didn't look too bad IMHO. after talking to other folks about that car - he is not trying to pass it off as an original Saleen but more as a tribute to 'what could have been'. Just like modded cars up here...
