I was adding some photos to the gallery and thought some of you might be interested to see some of the Mustang pace car photos I have. Anyone have any more, especially of the 1970 ARI cars?

Nice

 

thanks for sharing!

 

That Ford truck is beautiful.

 

I always liked the Pinto Cruising Wagon and the Fairmont Futura (which was orginally designed to be a downsized Thunderbird).

The 1979 Mustang Pace Car has always been one of my favorites. I remember that car when it was new. Those Recaro seats were a Godsend in the day. Remember when seats did not even have back adjustments? I remember sitting so upright in my 1976 Cobra II that I removed the stops under where the seat folded forward just to get a more comfortable back adjustment. I did like the 1979 Mustang when it first came out. I liked the Euro-Ford sensibilities that were incorporated into the design.

I have 1/18 die cast scale models of both the 1964 1/2 and 1994 Mustang Pace Cars.
