I arived just as they announced "Best of Show" & this was it. Jim bought this '65 Mustang in 1978 & took Sabrina to the prom in it in 1982!
The 302cid engine has aluminum heads, a tunnel-ram intake + an extra 250bhp boost from nitrous for a total of 650bhp. AOD (Auto Over Drive) trans & a 9" 4.10 rear end. It has a full air ride suspension & chrome moly roll cage.
Jim did the paint himself. He also did the '73 Mustang Mach1 I posted yesterday that won "Best of Paint".

Those are great Frank! The paint looks like a difficult color to shoot. I usually prefer period style mags, but those 3-pc. 10 spokers look pretty sweet keyed to mtch the body. Nice job in #3 showing the stance - this machine oozes, "I'm special!"

Got any bluer!

Nice paint and detail -very clean look in the engine bay but the interior is a letdown. Maybe he hasn't got there yet, maybe its on his "to do list". These jobs a re never finished.

Interesting to me are the big drilled racing disc rotors. Are they road legal in the US? They are not over here.

Am I going to have to take a shot of green (sour) grapes for you guys?

I've never thought to ask & I wonder why yours aren't legal. Maybe they won't last 50,000 miles under normal conditions?

Does it say somewhere not to take car pics in bright sunlight?

Awesome pics. I love the Car. But, it needs to be de-pimped.
