Well, I was at Walmart yesterday and picked up 5.0 Mustang and Hot Rod magazine and in each issue there's some sort of a write up on a 4-eyed stang! Kinda just cracked me up but it was cool.

In 5.0 magazine they did a feature on the 1984 5.0 Resto GT350 anniversary car they built. It has a 2004 blown Cobra engine in it with the 2004 Cobra wheels on it. The car is really clean and well constructed. It must be a hell of a ride in a lightweight 4-eyed stang with a 400+ hp. cammer motor. Check out the issue, good story on the car. It was saved from the wrecking yard too!

In Hot Rod, they did a story on an 85 Mustang hatchback preparred for NASA road racing. Pretty cool write up on a couple of regular guys competing with what looks like an 85 Mustang GT.

Check it out!

Yeah, there's always a 4 Eye in that Mag. I got a subscription, wish I had it a lil earlier though, had a sweet 82 GT in one month, and I never did get that issue...

I scanned these in and posted them a couple weeks ago, pretty cool article.

Yeah, they've been pretty good lately about including us, although they usually write "square-eyed" instead of four-eyed :roll: . But they, like any other for-profit organization, are inclined to follow the money. Overall, I'd say they prolly oughta consider renaming to "4.6 Mustang". ;)

hey, It won't be long and you'll see an overhaulin'-style show where they'll do a hot buildup on a classic four-eye! Hey I'm doing something like that but I don't have my own show-CRAP! LOL!

I think after all the 60's and early 70's muscle cars are mostly all scooped up are worth more than the common man could ever afford, people will skip the mid to late 70's stuff and look towards the mid to late 80's for "new classic" stuff...what's more cool than a 5.0 liter fox stang - nothin'! Plus the aftermarket is already heavily established and parts will be around for those for a LONG time. Plus, look at the resto business for fox mustangs, picking up nicely. Only the future will tell.
