What, exactly, do you mean by, "it was Highland Green"?

Yours was built about 1000 cars before mine and has the same options except mine came with a 3.25 rear end ratio and does not have the xtra cooling option.

Re:s code mustang 4 sp on the big Block

I have the same question except mines an original s code 4 sp with 63 and change for mileage....

Tho trying to hold off as long as I can fear I may have to part with it..

And my primary interest would be to keep it within this group....

Brass tacks:::; Picked it up in SLC Utah in 86, with 61 ish for mileage replacesd only an attenna ( twice ) and scatched up oil pan once ( couple inches lower than stock )

One paint chip, one small brown burn hole in f pass seat, r back headliner seperated a bit...

No rust ever, has been in exceptional storage for last 10 yrs, hasen't ran in 3-4 yrs..

Before being put away was mechanically as close to perfect as can be and took 3 rd in shelby class in only show ever in.

My story( restaurant industry) could go on & on, but the story of the car is I have never had time to enjoy it they way it should be..

I will send a pic or 2 and it is in the gallery ( 6 or 7 )



Dale R in Ottawa


P.S. Please don't throw me out of such a fine membership of people because my passion for my work is always been my first priority...

I wish I had the luxary of beening able to deminstrate such over excessive compusive and fanatical behaviours as the group towards our wonderful cars.

Keep it up, you all make me proud to say I'm part of such a careing bunch...
