I'm at the local gathering last night. Happens just about every Sat night here in Colorado Springs. Anywhere from 30-100 great looking vehicles show up and hang out in the parking lot. Great way to spend a couple hours. Anyway, I happen to notice something very interesting. There were two similar vehicles parked next to each other. One was a brand new red Rousch Racing Mustang. Washed, waxed, polished - great looking car. Next to it was a '68 fastback Mustang. Completely rebuilt, beautiful red paint, nice looking small block. A splash of chrome but nothing special, fancy, or custom. Essentially a very nice stock vehicle. Guess which car had the crowd around it? Not the new $35K one. What does it mean? Many things, I guess. But I thought it was an interesting.
Also, I happened to be over at the Ford dealer buying parts. Just for fun decided to take a gander at the new Mustangs. I really like the looks of the Mach I, and love the performance/handeling specs of the Cobra. But I don't think I'll be trading my FFR Cobra or my '66 in any time soon. Maybe when the '05s come out, but I doubt it.
