From the picture, it really doesn't look like a 66 to me. Kindof a Mustang II look in the front. Looks pretty strange actually.Isn't the whole beef over a 30 pound weight break or something? Rather trivial I'd say. Cool car anyway. ------------------ 63 Falcon 377 Cleveland stroker Flying Toilet alchohol injection. 6.19 @ 110 MPH 1/8 mile 2002 Ranger FX4 daily driver 2000 F350 PSD Crew cab dually - Like commuting in a B52!! 98 US Cargo Phantom II 28'

Yeah Alex, if you parked MoneyMaker next to Roy's car it would be hard to tell them apart. NOTI got a message from the postmaster at MSN telling me the email I sent you was delayed. I think they were revising the website. It said not to resend so I will wait a day or two to see if it gets there.

LOL@Hillbilly! ?When I built the 1966 car, I went to Ford and they had some old Funny Cars that belonged to Hubert Platt, Gas Rhonda and Dick Brannon and we took the designs off of those cars. We made molds from those cars using CAD drawings.? More like KIDS drawings. It looks like with different headlight stickers they can claim any year of Mustang ever built. Sure looks like a 99-04 to me, but Roy's attorney would ask if i have ever parked a 66 and an 04 side by side.

And what engine is in it??? Hill is as big a jerk as Coddington if not a bigger one. Jerk being a kinder, gentler word.
