Now that's pretty slick! I'd love to do that with my Mach1 and at the same time do the same with a P-38 and my Lightning. What the he11, I'd have to scrounge up a '64 Thunderbolt with a P-47.Again, nice shot! ------------------ -Paul 70 Mach1 351C 79 Ranchero GT 97 Expedition XLT 5.4 00 SVT f150 Lightning 4149 of 4966 Born on: 06/26/2000 'life's tough... it's tougher if you're stupid.'

The P51 is the fighter plane behind the car. Some say the Mustang was named after it. ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150 Please remember our sponsors, Mustangs Plus, NPD, Osborn Reproductions, MyFordPerformance.com, and FordRamAir.com

That is wild. WWII planes and old hotrods are just cool. If I remember the P51 was considered THE U.S. fighter fo the war. Unlike our Mustangs which were the creation of the pony car hotrod, the P51 was a perfection of the fighter first appearing mid-war May 10, 1942 in Western Europe.
