Re: 80's factory lightweights?
 

SAAC Mustangs were used to federalize the GT40 package used in the 1993 Cobra so that in itself was new for the guys on the assembly line. I helped a friend score one from Charley and that had a blower on it- but those were after the assembly line. Real neat cars!

Yes, they were actually very similar to the 93 Cobra. However, they were all built as standard 5.0 HO's and modified at Watson Engineering.

Yep, the good old days. Interesting time to be a young guy into cars.

I'm just guessing here, but that must be pricey chunk of metal. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
