I remember in high school specifically doing jackass stuff when I knew the poor officer stuck in the Lumina cruiser was on duty. So the Lumina gets my law dawg loser crusier vote.

While I don't think this would beat out the Fiesta SES I'm looking at, I wouldn't rule it out if I was on a tighter budget. My Mustang has no A/C or stereo, and it doesn't bother me in the least, but it has a 331 cubic inch V8 singing through long tube headers and Cherry Bomb Vortex mufflers.

She was a brilliant musician, but can you honestly say she wasn't a bit of a trainwreck?

They bought Sebrings, and by all accounts it was a much worse car. But that could be like comparing Courtney Love to Janis Joplin, neither is going to win beauty or sanity contests, but it could be argued that Courtney is better because she hasn't managed to OD yet.

I heard he drove the icerberg into the Titanic.

Which is why they sell Mustang II front ends to hot rodders in droves.

One of my favorite parts about Japan was being able to get a tall boy Asahi out of a vending maching on a street corner. Another cool thing (circa 2001) was that if you told a cab driver "Fast & Furious Honcho" most of them would drive like their ass was on fire than their head was catching.

CP when you can find them for less than half that. I'd love to have a SSP Mustang, but not at this price.

Sometimes the work is it's own reward. As of now I've spend nearly $30,000 on making a 41 year old Mustang as fast as a 2011 Mustang GT. I have no regrets, I just seem to need something to tinker on and challenge me.

But the SVO was from the days of 200hp 911's, so it was a Porsche chaser, and if someone got froggy in a 924, it was a Porsche destroyer.

Because it's nearby, and would cost a fraction of what the restored stuff on Hemmings and ebay usually go for.

@IFTNFS: It's black, and located in Belmont, Nevada. A couple hours with a buffer and it would look great, the interior could use some attention, but its not as bad as it could be. If I do eventually talk them out of it I'd advise everyone in buying stock in vacuum lines, lol.

Makes me want to pursue the 63 Continental a few towns over even more. It's not for sale, but I stop and really look it over every 6 or 9 months and let the owners know to get a hold of me if they ever decide to sell.

Compared to the cars of the day it was sexy. Sure, that might be like being the sexiest woman on The View, but it was better looking than most of its competition.

Very nice, Angie Dickenson would look good parked next to my 70 Mustang.

Nice, lol. As for the car, its too much like something a single 35 year old high school math teacher would drive. The price might be right, but the car is wrong.

@Spieg a la Carte: Bobbie Ann Spice maybe.

So it nearly finishes the job then catastrophically fails right before finishing, inspiring hundreds of thousands of people to put paper shredder stickers on their pickup trucks?

Had I not just paid off my quad with my tax return I'd probably be calling this guy. NP in my book

@boluke01: The gubment said no more non ABS brakes, thats why the next Viper is getting ABS.
