One of my favorite colors is Twilight Blue. That color of they sky in the evening, just before its darkest.

That happens to be the name of the color of my Mustang. It's a very deep metallic blue. A friend of mine used to think it was black. he thought that for two and a half years.

I always wanted a Mustang

I first saw one in 1978, a 1973 Mach 1, a real rarity in England, I think I have only see two since then.

Hey.......Just drive it over here, I'll have a kick round the tyres and a poke about under the hood, and give you a decision ;)

It sounds beautiful! When I was 18...many years ago....I bought a gold 1966 Mustang. 3 on the floor, and I could lift the front end off the ground.....it was a great car....I bought it, in almost mint condition in 1971 for $600!

cool, thanks for the link....

noting that it was a 390-4V, i am reminded of my friend Len, who totalled his 390 Mach I back in '74.....he fell asleep when driving back from visiting his wife to be.......prolly was only traveling at 50-60 mph when he went off the road.....anywhere else, would have been ok, but he augered into the side of a driveway and flipped the car end-over-end.....he was pretty battered but was able to heal, however, there was nothing left of the car other than a few parts.....

pony cars are not all that practical in this part of the world, although i must admit, i have a soft spot for the early Mach I's....and i might consider making a deal with the devil to get a Kirkham Cobra (reproduction)......*drool*......the rusty land cruiser gets me back and forth to work in all weather and to canoeing and skiing sites with all my gear......it's only got 167K miles on it, so there's lotsa life still there......at least, until the boyz are out of college......

as far as i'm concerned, a bad winter is one where it warms up enough to allow some thaw prior to spring.......totally ruins the XC trails.....
