Fast as freaking s#$t. Unbelieveable. He found it around 94 or so in rural Ohio. A dealer had about 10 they bought at auction from the Florida State HP. My Uncle found the cleanest, with best interior (most were trashed interior wise). Around 68k miles. He had the roof holes professionally plugged. He gets pulled over all the time by cops who just want to check out the car.

Yes, I have driven it, and it is NOT anywhere like a stock Mustang from the era. He has a mint vert that is two years newer that is, relatively (dont get me wrong), a piece of crap compared to this. It is ungodly fast. Cop car with manual tranny, how cool is that?

Some SSP cars were manual and some were auto. The manuals are what most people want.
