Oh yeah, and on the subject of horn honking and thumbs ups, I don't recall ever getting any in my mustang (thought I thought it looked ok), but I would get comments and thumbs ups all the time driving the cuda in it's multicolored, bare metal and primer configuration (maybe that's just a california thing??)
In your second pic, with the newer wheels, I've seen a mustang that looks pretty much like that on craigslist with a newer 5.0 engine/tranny. Was this yours?
Dave, you car looks wicked cool!
Hard to tell what people like and all, people have varied tastes. Like the others have said, Mustangs have been around and known more to people that the E-bodies.
Mustangs are nice cars but IMO your friends car is really nice becaise of the GT-350 scheme. (Is it a real GT-350?
) There is real race history behind those cars, even the the GT-350 name has a certain meaning to it as goofy as it is (I think when they were thinging up names, the used the distance between buildings, 350 feet, to be in the name.
) It is a nice car that he has.
I think John Voit drove a Shelby Mustang in the movie "Coming Home". It had hand controls as he was a paraplegic from the war.
