I used to have a Mustang II like that. Hard to tell what color that one is. Mine was a 76 Silver Mach 1. Must admit they did not ride that good,

There is when I built bridges in the prairies there was one barn in particular that had 3 66 lincolins suicide doors an overland whippit that ran these are a few that stuck to mind in total this guy maybe had 26-30 all undercover which made them age beautifuly. If I go back 'd make the trip just to see if it was there and to to buy one or two and take pics a lot of seniors keep them locked up in thier garges and don't drive anymore.

This car, Tiger McKee's, used to dominate the street racing scene in Huntsville in the early to mid '80s.

there is some guy around here that still drives a king cobra, its white with blue stripes, way rusted out and lots of dents and messed up body panels.. it sounds pretty bad too.

this thread is depressing....

for every rust bucket i see i find myself imagining what they would look like with new metal and good paint.... hours and hours of work. i cant believe people crush these cars. you can get at least a couple hundred out of each car, some one somewhere will buy it if you dont want it.

they will never make these again. crushing them takes them away forever. people dont seem to get that.
