Hey Guys and Gals! I wanted to show you my best friend Dave's 79 Mustang Pace Car. He is not a computer savy guy, but I want him to be part of the 4 eyed community that I am bragging about (thanks capriman86). I hope that no one minds if I drag him along with me to any swaps or meets. I figure two more cars is great right? These pictures were taken at New England Dragway back in 2005 and the guy driving is not my best friend, but a mutual friend of ours Jay. Both of our cars are at his house in Acushnet, Ma. I have attached a few pictures of the car.

Nice pictures.

You sure it is a real pace car? It should have recaro's and a sunroof.

I apologize for not stating that it is a replica. It was originally a four banger and he has been slowly making it a pace car. It is a pretty cool car though.

Greetings and Welcome!!!

You are absolutely right. Two more cars are great ---- and this is a GREAT site to visit. Y'all are saving two more cars (and not letting them go to the crusher). As for my 2¢, you and your friend are very welcomed to the community.

Replica or not, his ride looks fine.

It would be great to have him come along with us. It's always great to see another 4 eye. The Pace Car has always been one of my favorite 4 eyes and I'd really like to see his.

I've seen his car a bunch of times at the track (if it's the same one). If it is, I believe he runs high 12's with it, correct? It doesn't matter to me if it's not a true Pace Car, as I like clones just as much. That decal package is one of the most striking ones that I've seen on ANY car.

I don't know if many cars like his, so you probably did see it at the track. I don't remember his times, I will get them from him. He has had the car for about 8 years I believe, but like the rest of us, money doesn't grow on trees. Or at least I haven't found one that does that yet anyway, LOL!!! I appreciate the fact that you guys are giving him a warm welcome in, it means a lot to me. THANKS!
