Re: And now for something completely different
[b] Saw this at a car show on the island over the weekend. Car was built by Beverly Hills Mustang
of Ca, who was licensed by Ford to build 50 Mustang Rancheros, also known as "Musteros" They converted a Mustang coupe into a two-seater by shortening the roof, moving it forward and removing the trunk. It is believed only 10 were sold in the US. At this time you could by a Shelby cheaper than the conversion, so not many were sold here. The unknown balance of the cars actually built were sold and shipped to Australia and Europe. At this time there are only 4 known Beverly Hills Mustang Rancheros remaining in the US. This car, which belongs to Frank Herbert Jr. of Baldwin, NY, was in storage for about 30 years. The pony interior was restored, the hi-po 289 was rebuilt and the car was repainted in its original color of Springtime Yellow. - - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...Chevy/1114.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...Chevy/1113.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...Chevy/1112.jpg - |
Re: And now for something completely different
Glenn,
Thanks for posting those Mustang pics. That has to be the oddest conversion I've ever seen. Kind of makes you wonder why they'd want to do something like that in the first place https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif Nuch |

[b] Found these the other day - I believe they are from the early eighties,
at a demo held at Roosevelt Raceway. - - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...435/neg001.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...435/neg002.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...435/neg003.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...435/neg004.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...435/neg005.jpg - http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...435/neg006.jpg - |
Re: And now for something completely different
Glenn, That locomotive your dad is standing next to is a Union Pacific 4-8-8-4 Big Boy. They had 25 built to run the steep mountain grades of eastern Utah & western Wyo.
