I agree. I thought it was butt-ugly in the movie, and it hasn't gotten any better. I'm with you, I'll take a '69 FB GT any day.

There's something I'm wondering about the Unique Motorcars GT500E's, and that is that Sanderson Sales doesn't mention them on their website anymore. Sanderson was the marketing arm of the GT500E scheme. So if they've dropped out, I wonder why, and I wonder who's taken over the business side. Does the MM story say anything about this shake-up? (As if either MM or Mustang & Fords would ever engage in actual reporting/journalism.)

Apologies to the mags for insulting their journalism; I'll save the insults for the next time. Thing is, I Googled for Sanderson Sales Eleanor and did get a pretty complex Sanderson Sales web site regaring the GT500E:

. For some reason Sanderson has no link to this site from its home page, sandersonsales.com. I guess, with a self-imposed limit of 400 GT400E's (hah!) plus 75 Super Snakes (double hah!), they're worried they'll run out if they put any promotional materials where people can actually find them.

Damn. That's 475 fastbacks that were once "attainable" by us poor working shmuks.
