Looks nice, I would rather have an original 1966 GT350 though.

So would I stealth, but have you seen how much they are fetching lately? OUCH! My dad keeps kicking himself over selling his 68 GT500 KR. DOH![:@]

there was a shelby 500 at the BJAA this year that went very cheap because it was split pea green...

I am not a fan of the original gt500 or the split pea green [:'(] color. It wasn't really a "Shelby" car. Ford owned the name and applied gratuitously to an overweight, under powered car with way to many non-functional hood scoops. Maybe it was the original "rice."

the one on the BJAA had a different front end, and had a very different back end. perhaps a different year? im honestly not sure...but it was pea green..and it was gross...it went very cheap, although it was i perfect condition,...the announcers did say that would it have been red, it would have gone for 3 or 4 times more.

This is the model I am referring too, a 1970. Looks to much like a wanna-be 'cuda.



I did however like the 68's.

yep..that top one was the one at the BJAA that went low ebcause of the color...i pretty sure anyway...and as much as i dont like Fords...i think the top one is gross...the bottom one, i have no problem with..i think the vintage stangs are fine..its just the newer ones that i dont like...i am currently learning quite a bit about them seeing as how i am writing a brief history of the mustang as an introduction for my summary of the 2005...

to the guy with the viper stripes who cares what you think [sm=chairshot.gif]
those stripes started on american muscle the viper is not muscle the viper is a sports cars

Muscle car -- a sleeper that is fast and can fool a car at a stop light
Sports car -- a car that looks fast and you already no you can't beet!!!

i believe there was a fight about this 3 months ago a neon had your so called viper stripes
and a fus got started over it got news for you the stripes look better on the neon calls it is a sleeper

besides wide stripes look better anyway
