a nod to Ed "Big Daddy" Roth and his funny hot rod caricatures :)
silly idea, after she mentioned old 69 Mustang GT being among her dream cars. the rest is, as they say, hystery.

the main reason why the mustangs grew out like draft horses was that Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen wanted a big block mustang. earlier mustangs were sinply not good to hold a big block without a hefty reworking...
thanks, I'm a fan of customs and muscle cars and stuff. :) also, his caricatures are unique and adorbs. :)

When I was in high school a friend of mine had a '65 with a 289, and it was like a shell, there was nothing to it. You could just fling it around.
Later, another friend got a '67 with a 427 and custom suspension. It was a beast, and scary as hell.
Somehow neither of them stacked it, though.

If I were to pick something similar from that era, maybe a '64 Stingray with some subtle customization and a convertible hardtop, and like 30 coat deep pearlescent white paint. or if you want to get serious, a Cobra.
If I was going to pick a Mustang, it would be a '64 or '65 with the 289, pretty much stock. I like the way they're really light, and they just fly.

they are all after the 63 because of the split rear window, but the others look great, too. 30coat white pearlescent? sounds like you can drown in that...
Cobras are brutal, no matter which year and power output. or so I heard... I have yet to drive one. I had some 80's vette, but only for a test drive.
them old mustangs are pretty well motorized with the small motor. low weight (comparably, they are still no small rides) and an agile engine is all you need. :)

Yeah, the '63s are definitely cool for the split window, that was unique.
there were a couple of Cobras around my neighborhood when i was a teenager, so I got to see them up close a lot, if never drive them. Serious race cars, though. Not much more than a frame, a very light body, and a LARGE engine. Both 427s, as I recall. Beautiful body style. Simple and nice curves.

interesting thing is that the bodies are aluminium, and made in england... but for a 2litre straight-four.
later Sunbeam had the same idea, bought Ford 206 engines and gearboxes, and shoehorned them into a little roadster named Alpine. the result was named Sunbeam Tiger, and it ran like one, too. you could drive in fourth gear all day. :) a few years later chrysler bought Sunbeam, and they begrudgingly finished the last few Tigers before cutting the line off. :P

All the American cars were so much bigger and wider than all the European sport cars. They were really a different thing. I suppose it was all a way to balance and accommodate big-block engines.
Those original Tigers were badass. My uncle had one for a while.
