1971 Mustang Sportsroof
1972 Q Code 4-speed conv.
Kind of a corny detail to most but I find it interesting - back on Friday, 12th of February 1971, my Boss 351 was built in Dearborn, Michigan.
It had been scheduled to be built on the following Monday.
Sometimes the back- story/history of our cars are very interesting!
The following pic an original Polaroid taken at the dealer in Cordell, Oklahoma back on March 25, 1971. While doing some heavy research, I contacted Don Cannon's daughter and she found a few old (but damaged) pictures of my car! They were in the attic of Don Canon's house. She told me they survived a fire of the original dealership building - I believe in the 80's. On the right you can see where we worked to digitally restore this pic as best we could. I feel very fortunate to have this and other items to go with my car.
