RE: Calling All SVO's
I rarely post over there, simply go by Jesse. Most of those guys seem to know everything, so they sure don't need the little help I can offer here. 
Mine has only left me sitting once, also at the track. After ~300 off the limiter launches on radials the rear finally gave up. Perfect excuse to put in the 8.8 I had waiting lol

It is in East/Central OH. Actually from Bucyrus which is ~50 miles west. I've been to Indy a few times, went to see the F1 race 4 years in a row. 
Route 30 runs right by both Bucyrus and Wooster, it heads up by Fort Wayne I believe...

RE: Calling All SVO's
You could spend anywhere between 2K and 4K on an SVO. Mileage, general condition etc. taken into account. The parts that are getting kinda tough to come by are those SVO specific parts like hood, front bumper, header panel, rear spats, dual wing, steering wheel/center pad, front lights, a few trim pieces. Some of these are reproduced, but not all of them.

I had 84 SVO, Medium Canyon Red, leather interior, first one sold in the country. The next day I special ordered & still have my 85.5, Medium Gray Metallic, leather interior. Bought them new when I lived in MD, but my 85.5 is very happy in Central FL.
I used to buy a new Mustang V8 every year, I stopped when I drove the SVO. Guess you have to have one and have driven many other cars to appreciate the SVO.
