Simply because the dealer options are so hard to trace back. My 88GT had dealer installed A/C.

From the standpoint of a special model, the Saleen and Steeda are of a much different category as far as I'm concerned. They are well known, respected tuners. Saleen has actually become a manufacturer. That and they come with a well documented history.

McLaren, Saleen, and Steeda pop right into my head. They are a lot more like Shelby's than dealer options.

Tracing a dealer "special" car like that one from Kansas City that was posted about on here a while back is more difficult. In my opinion, they are worth nothing more than a standard Mustang. Just because a few dealers get together and change the rear end ratios means nothing to me.

Oh, and my A-game hasn't been in use within this thread, lol.

There's one in my neighborhood. I see it being driven every week. has a signature & number on the passenger side dash, I believe. Blue & white. Very fast, and very loud.

Take care,

I don't like getting into arguments with rbatson because he usually has very valid points, and I respect him. It's difficult to get into an argument knowing you'll really have to work at it.

He's right. It takes forever for me to beat him. :D

WHAT THE HELL?!?! SONUVA..!!! :D

OK, I'm gonna have to paste and copy this post.. He actually admitted I was right about something!! HEEH

Though we are both hard headed, its a mutual respect, Kell.

No Boss '2?
 
Shelby, Shelby, Shelby.
I am a little worried about you. A '71 made your list?! I just don't know about that. The K-code fastback is a nice choice, and the little shout out to Scarlet is well, kind of funny.
But no BOSS 302? The '70 SCCA car is legendary, and I think you know how I feel about the '69's. Oh well, the foolishness of youth. I meandered through everybody's picks and Mr. Ford was the only one in favor of the 'little' BOSS.
I wonder what would happen if we started a mustang works top 10 thread? That would be interesting..........
