Thanks for the story, Zabo.

I always enjoy a heart-warming story...especially from an enthusiast.

Seriously.. if he were still around (He'd be in his late 60s early 70s) you'd bet your butt he'd have made a way for me to get a 5th gen just so he could get a 5.0 and race me in Florida. The man was never much of a Mustang fan (I mean he drove a Goat instead of a Fairlane..) but respected all cars. Pitty heart disease runs in the family and took him too soon.

But.. I have a feeling that he's driving some '57 Skyliner that went before it's time up there. Along with his GTO. Hell maybe he found my mom's '69 up there too? (the one in the pic)

Actually asked about what he did when my mom's friend wrecked it..

"Apesh!t puts it mildly.."
