[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1237287, member: 18302"] I have a '67 Mustang fastback, but I've resisted the tempation to sell due to sentimental reasons. Needs a steering box, heater core, new paint, etc... My dad bought it from the original owner in late '68, who was buying a '69 Boss 302. Someday, I hope my son and I will return it to its former glory. It started out life as a 225 hp 4 barrel 289, with a 4 speed top loader and a dealer installed 3.50 Detroit Locker rear. Has the center console, which is a valuable option. Dark 'midnight' blue paint. It has had Magnum 500 wheels (15") since about 1969, but many motor and suspension changes since then. Back in the day, Dad put in Ford's red hot 'LeMans' solid lifter cam and proceeded to spank the original owner's Boss 302. That LeMans cam was barely streetable, but it was in the car for about 200,000 miles and really woke up the sleepy 289 (59 hp gain according to Ford's Muscle Parts guide). Combined with a few other mods turned it into a mid 13 second car (but not civilized like a modern car). I had a '70 351W in it for awhile, and it was not as strong, but still managed to take a nice running 340 Challenger two out of three (I spun on the first run). Those early Challenger's sure look nice. Dad says the very rare 340 Six Pack was a real beast on the street back then. [/QUOTE]
