Searching for history
Hi fellow Mustangers
I live in Australia and now have a 1966 Mustang GT350H Tribute car which to date I tracked back to the early 80,s when it lived in Baltimore.It was slammed by a Camaro in the left hand front and was parked up for over 20 years and somebody ended up owning it and do all the repairs.
The car is as square if not better than when it came off the assembly line,out by 1/8 inch on the diagonals.
My car migrated from Baltimore to California and had workshop job done in 2011 at "The Image Performance Center"El Monte.
The invoice I have is in the name of Rodrigo Rivera.5502 Tyler Avenue.Arcadia.CA.91008.
There is nothing to be concerned about with this enquiry,I am just seeking some more history on the car.I am in constant communications with the guy who owned it in the 80's.
I have searched the web for Rodrigo and had 34 hits in California.
Maybe he is still into Mustangs and a forum member knows him.
My email address mustang.tragic@hotmail.com
Car VIN 6T09C253083

I love the American Spirit if I had my way I would shoe horn a 427/8 Stroker into the car.Unfortunately our local regulations don't allow that down here in Aus.I am going to retrofit an Edelbrock 347 Stroker into my ride and do a full dress up kit under the hood(bonnet)Would love to send some pics but don't know how.
Reading our club publication this afternoon about a group of Aussies who went Stateside for six weeks.They were disappointed by the lack of the classics at the car shows they went to around Stateside
