'67 Mustang LM
« on: January 26, 2018, 02:40:45 PM »
Started another one. The one would be representable of early 70's in Wisconsin somewhere...Pretty basic, high winding 289 for power, good set of tires and wheels and away we went racing!!IMG_4792 by Rett Rundell, on Flickr

Good story! That's what I like about racing....always a story somewhere! A few of them include me, some good, some not so much....lol. I drove three Mustangs back then, none a '67 tho. There was a '66, 70', and 73. The first two were pretty good. The '73, eh, drove it for someone else. It was a lot like pushing a rope!

Well surprise, surprise! I have no hood for this one! Didn't notice when I started it. If someone has one, I'd gladly buy it. If not, I'll go back to the 60's again and make one!

After looking again at the pic, I think the diameter of the cage tubing is too large and throws the whole pic off. Car isn't coming out the way I wanted anyway. lol
