Had a 69 mustang fastback ,302 w/ 351 heads ,ported polished ,mid rizer ,isky cam ,high duration ,the car in all practical terms was a drag car .It made you sick to sit in it.The joy came when you hit the throttle ,closes thing to a rocket sled I had ever been in.This car was recognized as my High schools wow car ,as a kid I always would watch this car pull into our local High School parking lot and amaze at its sound ,made your heart skip.Jumping 10 years into the future ,driving home one day and Im amazed to see the car with a for sale sign sitting in the front yard of a residence off the main Highway ,I pulled my truck around to the next exit and headed back for a closer look and its the same one. After enquiring of the sales price ,(I dont think it would of mattered) .I made the deal .What sold it is the sound that this one car could make at idle ,unfergettable and brought me back to being a kid with dreams of driving such a car. I smiled all the way home that day.
