Are our cars really that much bigger?

From the rear the 7173 looks so small...

1971 M-code Mach 1

newer verses our cars

Newer stangs have a much bigger butt.

The 7123's are yuuuuge!

To be fair, our fenders are like 7 feet long... But the new mustangs are BIG.

Haven't had my '17 parked next to my '73 yet, but sure didn't think the '17 looks that big....

Cut, paste, save.

There's one of those comparison pics I was looking for. Yeah... our cars definitely earned the 'Clydesdale' nickname... that's for sure.

But honestly, I kind like nickname myself. Is that so wrong? :whistling:

YES.

So you call the late models Clydsdale Plus sized?

Great thread, Ray.

I once had my Mach 1 parked by a 71 Torino, and Mach looked tiny!

I have also had the 71s parked with the 08 Bullitt. It really puts things into perspective.

pic of weight slip. Don't believe what your registration lists as weight if it even does in your state. This is with the driver at around 150 lbs too.
