    Default Saw this last week cruising the streets of Grand Junction!

    Sounded pretty mean and looked really good. Unfortunately I didn't have time to chase them down and get better pictures.

    Yep!

    Been a huge fan of the 69-70 cars my whole life. Personally I am biased to the 69 models, then again I own a 69 Mach 1 so . . .

    Always liked the 69s best, but anymore I would not turn my nose up at a 70 if it was going to be parked in my driveway.
    1984 Mustang GT owned since 1991 (first car). Mercury Mountaineer GT-40P engine, some suspension mods, currently undergoing a five lug SN95 brake upgrade and more suspension mods. Some minor body and interior mods have been done as well.

    Got to disagree with a couple of you. I hate the fake air scoops on the 69. Either make them functional or stick with the 70 imo. Since I believe Larry Shinoda was on my side, that makes the rest of you wrong.

    Sorry the 4 Eyes of the 69 make up for any issues with the fake scoops! Although mine will be functional!

    Wow what a cool sighting!!!

    1970 was the year most attributed to the Boss. The 69 was a near miss. It was the 70 that won the title, got all the cool marketing, and looked the best.
