The Mustang II community agrees, let the era of Mustang II Eleanor builds begin!!!

When every single headline, social media comment, and news story is virtually indistinguishable from The Onion these days... mine’s broken.

You drank lead based paint chips through the garden hose, didn’t ya?

Thoughts and prayers sent, I’m over it.

What should they build? Three words: Coyote Powered Pinto. Sure, you’ll die if you get rear-ended, but it’s not like anything could keep up with you!

Why does the Richard Petty tribute Supra look so damned good? Seriously, it’s the first time I’ve seen one of these BMW-built bastards and liked it.

My nominees?

I’ve had three Mustang IIs. They’re fantastic cars to have fun with.

Are you kidding? It's smaller than the trunk of my Toyota Avalon!

I don’t need to drive it (in fact, I wouldn’t), sit inside it, or own it to see all of the stories about it, or talk to my friend who works at the factory in Austin. I’ve worked on cars for over two decades, including a Model T and several BMW i8s (and everything in between, for that matter), and the moment I found

The fact that his supporters are so stupid that they can’t fathom that this will hurt THEM is scary.

It’s the ugliest truck, with the tiniest bed, with the most problems... what’s not to like?
