I've owned four Mustangs, a 65 fastback (302), a 66 fastback (302), a 69 fastback (428) and a 79 turbo 4 cylinder. Except for the 79, those cars were so loud I couldn't tell if anything rattled or squeaked. Must have been a
70s thing. ;^)Dave
Only a REAL Driver would make a statement like that. ;) The more you "took advantage of the power" they had on those days, the less you'd hear any little squeaks and rattles of ANY sort! Still....gotta luvvitt! ;)
Ya know. I got my old Blazer back this week. Call it visitation rights. It's a 88 2WD body on a 89 4x4 frame, that's slightly bent, with a 93 dog house, and part of a 1990 interior. That bitch squeeks and rattles none stop. Yet I love her like a red headed step child.
In 2WD on the transfer case on dry roads she will spin 'em. in 4WD Hi she comes out of the hole like a AWD truck. In 4WD Lo she aint never been stuck. She does whats asked, and then some. Who cares if she looks like hell, and shakes? Rell men don't drive a car for perdy looks. They drive it for how it performs. Charles

Yep, like my '66 Elky. You can't roll something off the new car lot that can give you the same feeling.

Oh, I don't know, after the work I've done on the Elky, it performs the way I want it to. Now to make it all one color. >:-)
