Ford guy Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 "50 years of the Mustang" would be better, don't want no Cameros or Challengers sneaking in! I'm up for it. I've been looking for an excuse to built that '67 coupe I got from Motor City Resin Casters.
webestang Posted November 10, 2013 Author Posted November 10, 2013 Your right.......! 50 Years of Mustangs......................
horsepower Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 I have had Pinto's & Mustang II's since they first came out in '71, My first Mustang II was a '74 2.8 4 spd car, I had the 2.8 re-done by a local engine builder it was a super runner right at 350 horsepower, after the Mustang got sort of worn out on the body side I took the V-6 out & put it in a '74 Pinto runabout, the Pinto's were almost 1000 lbs. lighter, it was the best runner I had, I did build a '72 Runabout that had one of the high compression 302's in it with a C-4, & the V-6 was better to drive due to the weight balance, but the V-8 was most impressive as I kept the D50x13 rear tires on it. You could stand on the pedal at 70mph, & kick the tranny down to second & it would smoke the rear tires until either you ran out of balls or it got fast enough to shift. The V-6 had enough power that it would pull 7000 RPM's in 4th gear, no idea how fast that was as it ran out of speedo around 5500 rpm.
kruleworld Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 I am going to change the tires.. Good, that was bugging me as it looks like an off-roader.
