Re: Traded His Mustang For 66 Short Fleet

I think your buddy got a killer deal on that sweet fleetside.

With that said I used to have a 200ci 1968 Mustang for a short while that same color matter of fact and it was a nice car. The 200ci inline 6 was actually an impressive little engine. I almost want to say that the inline Ford 6 engines are just a tad smoother and more refined than the inline 6 chevys. I believe they have an extra set of mains or something I've heard. Either way it just seemed like you could rev it more than my 230 inline 6.

Re: Traded His Mustang For 66 Short Fleet

Nice mustang, really clean looking six under the hood. But it needs a 429 instead of that 200 I would have kept the Stang and bought the truck to boot!
As you can see by my sig, I'm don't discriminate by brand. Cool cars are cool cars.

Yeah he's pretty happy with it...he has a wicked 350 replacing the 283 and he's adding power steering plus a little lower stance. Here's a step is currently doing.

Re: Traded His Mustang For 66 Short Fleet

Nice trucks! I normally don't like satin finish, but both of those trucks look great. Maybe my problem is I see too many vehicles with satin finish that are not well built like these two. Good trade, I bet both parties are happy. I don't care for 69 notch backs, but it looked like a nice vehicle as well.
