I owned  a 65-GT-350 that I purchased used from Ron's Ford in Bristol, TN.

Traded it for a new 68 Super Bee at Down Town Dodge, Norfolk VA.

The last time I knew the Mustang address was in Cherry Pt. NC.

 

Yes. Ihave a red 1968 Shelby GT500 KR convertible.Car has rare factory A/C,ps.pdb.and auto. Also a red 1966 Corvette convertible 327-350 4 speed..The Shelby is the fastest car I think I have ever owned.

 

I still have one. A 1970 Chevelle SS 402.  Kids these days don't have a clue what real horsepower feels like when they think that Hondas, Toyotas and Mazdas produce a quarter of the HP that the old Muscle cars did. They might go fast but the feeling is not even close.  

 

mustangs are not muscle cars there girl and kiddie cars always were

 

Owned '67 Shelby GT350, '69-mid '70's. Bought as investment to later sell & put down payment on new home. Bought from young guy in early 20's, i was 20. He owned it from new, repainted it to a cadillac metallic blue, I had it stripped down to bear metal & repainted to Shelby blue w/2 8" white stripes down center from bumper to bumper. 98% original, first owner added Hurst shifter, mag spoke wheels, 15" tires & relocated radio antenna to passenger rear fender. I changed wheels to Torino GT with 14" polyglass tires. 15" wheels were hitting fender edges when going over bumps or hard turns. Also changed rear when friend who owned '69 GT500 bought 4.56 rear for his, I bought his 4.11 rear.  WOW, what a difference in quickness ! Sold it in late 70's to engineering student attending Drexel Univ in Phila. Advertised it in Philly Inquirer for 5 days & it was gone just like that.  Many lookers young & mid age guys.  Everybody wanted to negotiate to a lower price. I stuck to my figure & got it, telling them that if I didnt get my price now, I would just sit on it & put it up later at a higher price. Glad an engineering type guy bought it, he probably appreciated it for what it is than all the others.  One guy from NE Phila wanted to trade me "even up", sight unseen by either of us,  for "the BADDEST BOSS 302 in Phila"!  Yeah, okay.  Down side of it all, is that I'm still kickin myself in the ass today for letting it go.  Its just a pleasant memory now.

 

Yea,  I had a 65 GTO with a 389 V8 with 421 heads and intake. had a tri power intake.  M-21 4speed tranny, and a 411 Pos tract rear end.  I could do a 11 sec 1/4 mile with no problem.  What a car!!!!!

 

I owned a 1970 Mustang  Fastback with a 302

 

yes a 1970 Mercury Cyclone with a 429 and Hurst shifter.  A screaming machine and i loved driving it.   Actually got to drive it on the Autobaun in Germany.  At 170 mph i figured i was going fast enough.   Heck of an experience
