- 1972 Mustang fastback: 429 SCJ w/C6 trans (for sale)
2006 Mustang GT: 4.6L w/T-56 trans, heavily modified (for track duty)
Hi All!
Glad to have found this group. I've had my `72 Fastback since I was a young man, and for years it has sat rather untouched. That will all change soon though, so I look forward to sharing the journey to get her back on the road better than ever.
As a bit of background, here are my vitals:
Name: John Santiago
Profession: Philosophy Professor
Car #1: 1972 Mustang fastback
Car #2: 2006 Mustang GT
Home: Chicago, IL
Hobby: High Performance Driving, Time Trial racing, Driving Coach
Affiliated Organizations: NASA-Midwest, Hooked on Driving-Great Lakes region, MVP Track Time, Midwest F-Body
I got into the driving scene about 6 years ago or so, and I've taken my (once) daily driver 2006 Mustang from stock to a heavily modified track toy. I'm not much for straight-line drag strip work, as I much prefer the curves of a dedicated road course. The `72 probably won't be built for that sort of duty, but it should have a solid foundation for it if the direction of this car's build changes down the road.
Should be fun!
Best,
