Wow! I just realized that on 12/18 it made 25 years that I've owned my Sprint! Holy Smokes!

Here it is around January '78:

'70 Mustang Mach 1 - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150

Gee. Now that you brought it up, I guess I have had my '70 Mach I for 15 years. When I first got it, it was my only car. I cringe when I think about driving it in the snow.

A truly GREAT car, Steve! The 72 Sprints are my favorite Mustangs of all time!

You lucky horseman!

Hey....are those Goodyear Polyglas GTs..?
What kind of engine is in there?
Have you rebuilt it yet?
I like the '71-'73 bodystyle...especially the Machs...they just look like they mean business...
Congrats on your anniversary...it's good to see a classic that has a good home...

Yep, they are Polyglass GTs. It had a 302, then another 302, then two different 351Cs. A lot happens in 25 years!
