Where Are the Lawman Mustangs Now?
I can only imagine being in the shoes of these soldiers. These Mustangs bought great joy to the troops and must have felt like a glimpse of home. Many photos of Al Eckstrand’s 1970 Military Performance Tour are still accessible, although sadly only the replacement Boss 429 lives today. With the current trends going on, I hope one of the remaining Lawman Mustangs is hiding in someone’s barn!

After the tour, one of the Mustangs went on to have many owners. In the early nineties, Eckstrand bought the car and shipped her to Europe, where Dennis Collins from Fast N Loud bought it. Collins later sold the Lawman for $116,000 to Bill Goldberg, who is currently restoring her to its former glory. Goldberg also owns Angel Restorations who specialises in restoring Shelby Mustang GTs, Boss Mustangs and other special Mustangs. You can follow the Mustang restoration on social media. 


Goldberg owns Anghel Restorations?

Whatever day you pick, just make sure it is warm. The cruise is no fun when everyone is cold.

Was a 69 GT500 really 3,850 lbs?

how the heck did that accident happen to the white 67 & did they total it, wow someone must have pics of that

The story I heard was someone remote started a 67 Camaro that was behind the Shelby and ran into it pushing it into an early 60's Corvette.

There is no hose inside, just a combination of fittings. I think I made a special wrench to tighten them. I don't have any pictures oddly enough.

I did not trust using one on my car so I found one with a nice body and gutted it. I modified it for -8 fittings. The fuel just loops through it as the fittings are connected inside. I have a Carter HV pump on the motor.

I think all of the George Barris creations are pretty awful in general.

The 69 Shelby De Mexico went for $115,000. Is that a record?

Early 289 Edelbrock pump on an early 289 timing cover on a replica T/A Boss 302. NOTE: it does not say Edelbrock on the pump because I removed it.



Yes that is a Edelbrock pump designed to replace the early style Ford aluminum water pump but it is a on a 1964 260/289 style timing cover which seems odd to use that timing cover on a replica 69 or 70 TA Boss 302 engine. That is a odd timing cover that doesn't look like factory one . Not a problem if you like it . Is it some kind of aftermarket timing cover?
It is an NOS Ford cover.

I did. I would mark them somehow where the tire covers it and tell them they are marked in some way. I doubt if they have a stock of Shelby wheels sitting around.

Wheel Collision Center can do them. I had this nasty set of 200s wheels done there. They do them on a cnc mill. https://www.wheelcollision.com/
