The Story

I bought this Mustang back in 1979 when I was 15 years old. I got it from a guy in California, and it had been road raced before I owned it. The dash plaques inside are all original to that era.

These days, I auto-cross it, but I actually prefer taking it to shows. My favorite part of the car is just my personal history with it.
