Man, that thing was fun to drive. She had an after market cam that was so high it would barely idle, a bigger carb, and a 351C under the hood driving a C-6 and a 9 inch positrac. Wheeee! The rear tires were too big for the fender wells, so the ass and was lifted quite a bit. When you lift the rear of fastback you effectively lose rear visibility. All I could see in the side mirror was the rear fender. The art of changing lanes involved either hanging my head out the window, or punching the throttle and doing it blind. Handling became, um, interesting at 110 MPH. 6 MPG (9 MPG if I drove at the speed limit) convinced me to sell her to a Mustang collector. He told me some time later that the drive line had been put into another car. The body had been crushed.
