Default V6

Does anybody have a V6 to nominate for ride of the month? We need a classic in there.

I second, that is a nice ghia ( looks like a disco cruiser ). It is nice to see a low miles original Mustang II. All the ones around here are pretty rough.

A II is not considered a classic, but Yeah. There needs to be an original V6 Mustang represented. They couldn't pull the hat off your head, but they were the original V6's.

How old does a car have to be before it is considered a classic? I thought it was 20yrs. Next year all IIs will be 30+. First gen Mustangs are all antique cars now aren't they?

Believe it or not, that IS starting to change, at least a bit. The more we just show up and act like we belong (without excess flaming) the more they just come to accept us.

Mind you, I'm a bit of a hippie/redneck and just joined a Crown Vic site with a definite Law Enforcement presence. Now THAT'S a bit intimidating.......I'm still getting used to how it feels in the FRONT seat for a change
