I think you are a troll, but tell me by looking at that picture
which engine is in that Mustang? The two most common ones have the same
power as a 318 did in 1963. Comparing a 335 HP station wagon with a 235
hp or more Mustang would be a bad idea, I'd still put my money on the
Mustang even with only th 4V 302 simply because of the weight
difference. If it were a 390 or bigger, you're hosed.
