I stopped by Galpin Fprd (the largest Ford dealership in the U.S.).

Anyway I was looking at a triple black (vert) 500GT Shellby - list $51,000 plus 15,000 over list - when the floor manager approached.We began talking about the KR which will probably be going out at $100,000.After checking outa couple of Saleens, a Fouse, anda "Galpinized Boss", I showed him a picture of my '66 Fastback.

His reply: Oh, you have a real one.

When my brother went truck shopping i went with him.We was at a dealership they had a evo8 on the showroom floor he saw me looking at it. And said its the fastest car hes got i laughed and said im not going to down grade and pointed to my 68 in the parking lot. He kept going on about how fast the evo8 and it would beat me. I just laughed when we left i lite up the tires you couldnt see my car he gave me a dirty look guess he seen i wasnt lieing to him.

The new mustang created an itch.I scratched it by buying an old one at a fraction of the price. Never looked back.

Cheers,

I thought you guys were Mustang fans? A mustang is a mustang even if it wears a II or a V6 emblem....
