    Back on board after a few years...

    Been a few years since I've been active on here, family, work, school, blah, blah, blah.... Just kind of lost my way, ended up having to get rid of my 71 project, too much time and money needed, you all know the story.  Well my love of Mustangs, especially the big girls of 71 through 73, never...

    What "almost"- Mustang do you wish Ford would have offered...

    I like that station wagon idea....pretty cool photoshop. As for what "almost" was offered, I really would love to see what Shelby would have done with the big girls! I like to dream that the GT350 would have been a nicely done up Cleveland (if Shelby had still had his hands involved with it...

    how to bend fender extention?

    I've tweaked mine before when replacments were not lining up. Just be careful and do a little at a time, should be fine. The extensions are pot metal if I remember right, not too sure how heat would cause them to react. I guess the question I should have asked first is, just how far out of...

    What is your "one that got away" story?

    My neighbor had a 66 Mustang coupe, black paint, white vinyl top with a red interior...first time I saw a Mustang up close. It sat in his side yard, which faced my homes front yard. She was a yard ornamnet for sure...10 years of watching that car it never moved...yet somehow she kept clean...

    hot rodding a 351 m

    I think the reason the 351M and even the 400 are looked upon badly is that they came about at a time when performance engines were slowly disappearing from the market (70 gas crunch, insurance, etc...). Due to the timing of their release, there was minimal factory "hot rodding" parts available...

    More 71-73 Mustang Models

    I got the 1/25 version as well! It used to be harder to find the 71-73 Mustangs model kits. I can't remember which compnay made it (might have been revell) but the "best" option used to be the Boss 351 kit...but the lines weren't right and for some odd reason all the 71-73 Mustang kits I've seen...

    More 71-73 Mustang Models

    I got it off EBay, usually I see them for sale out of Japan and they ask $250.00 for them...found this one in the States for just a hair over the hundred mark. Probably overpaid (I am sure now they will show up by the dozens for a lot less! :rolleyes: ) but I've been looking for so long I...

    More 71-73 Mustang Models

    I finally managed to snag a Mustang kit I've been hunting for for the better part of 20 years...not many have heard of it, let alone even seen it before. I had talked with a guy who goes to Carlise PA every year, has tons and tons of kits (vintage and new) and even he looked at me blankly when I...

    Random weird 71-73 mustang pics I have found

    Honestly speaking, the yellow Mustang with the ground effects...not too bad, don't really like the side scoops, but the rest is done very nicely I think (still not my style though)... But now if you say you don't like 'em low... then lets raise 'em up! Again, not my style...but I do...
