My first car was a used '74 Pintostang with an underwhelming 171 engine.
While it really didn't measure up to the earlier Mustangs, that car has a soft spot in my heart. It was a good first car that I really treated poorly. When I was 18 I bought a new '79. I loved that car. Today my son drives an '80 2-door that we've been working on for the past 4 years. I don't consider these "bad" cars by any stretch of the imagination. jim.gm4dhj wrote: > Just saw my first 2005 muzy in the flesh at Glasgow airport, Scotland this > morning...dark blue metalic ,good looking car...I would swop my '66 coupe > for that !...which is more than I would say for the '74 to '94 > versions......what a waste of 20years...looks just as easy to design a good > looking car as a bad one..... > > |

And thats why your family never left the 'old world' I imagine? taste? My personal fav Mustang of 71+ would be a 85 GT with T-Tops, in red, with grey interior (red piping). There are so few nice four-eye examples around these days... Sigh... I saw a 85 GT convertible (same color scheme) when I went for groceries the other nite. Now thats a fairly rare car these days. It was in real nice shape too. jim.gm4dhj wrote: > what a waste of 20years...looks just as easy to design a > >>good >>: looking car as a bad one..... >>: >> >>Awwwww c'mon now! >>The Fox Notch was as sweet a Mustang as you could ever see.. >> >>Now, go wash your mouth out. >> >>Kate >>98 Cobra Drop Top. >>With a funny little Ford face that only a mother could love. >> >> >> > > no taste...... :~) > > |

My family lived with your lot in 59-61 - Troon... right next door to
St Andrews... and Prestwick.... Good people but the cars were kinda sucky... : ) Ford Anglia, Vauxhall, etc.... I do believe that it is a real challenge to actually design and produce an ugly car.... I'm reminded of the Edsel, Aztec, and a few others through the intervening years.... considering all the people who have to be convinced that the public will scoop them up, and the company is not going to lose any money on them. Even some Mustang IIs are getting hot.... So, in all those years, and one of the reasons it still exists, there seems to be something for every taste 'cause people have continued to buy them.
