I don't know about you guys, but whenever I get my new MM in the mail I follow a 3 part process, first I glance thru the whole thing and usually read one or two things that just jump out or feature a super cool car, then I go back and read cover to cover, than at momments of bordom I take deep looks into wide set shots to see what I can see.

Well, I just took a long hard look at the pic in the pony trails section last night (silver springs I think) and I hope I am wrong about this, but if you go just left of the center of the pciture I could swear I am seeing one of those Miatastang hybrids.

I can't imagine that anyon would have the stones to show up in one of those things but for the like of me I can not id it as anything but. Someone please tell me I'm high.

Which pic/page? I wanna look too.

And yes, that's pretty much the order of operations when I get mine too.

What is the car you are speaking of, Pak? I'm lost, as usual.

My Lord WHY WHY WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Just restore an old one. The Miata's engine doesn't have enough power to move that car. WOW.

Like I say at work YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!!!

No actual Mustangs are harmed to build them. Oh, and you could swap a V8 in...

All the info, including build pictures. http://m1stang.com/

For what you spend to build one, you could have a real one.

Not my cup of tea, but one of those little bitty cars with a 5.0 in it? You'd surprise a bunch of people in stop light to stop light runs.

The hottest car in town when I was growing up was a totally stock looking 1978 MGB--one with rubber bumpers. The only give-away was hidden dual exhausts and two tiny "powered by ford" badges. Had a hopped-up 302 in it. Not much top end, but in short bursts, there wasn't much that could catch it.

So, pardon the pun, size doesn't matter. (I can't believe I went there.)

i don't i think one of those monster miata's with a 5.0/5spd and the stang body kit would be kinda cool, i know it sure would be fun to drive. you gotta remember the miata is such a small car that with a v8 it's more like a cobra than anything you can buy now and with the mustang body kit it won't look so "cute" and girlie. just my opinion, but i think it would be a blast to drive, but it could never replace my stang EVER.

Page 9 I think it was, bottom section, it's the Silver Springs pony trail pic, exact left of the center of the pic. It's a red convertble. It's not the easiest picture to make out, but since the front windshield pillars are body color and there appears to be no rear side windows with the top up I don't know what else to make of it.
