Ford Asks For Help Identifying This Mid-Engine Ford Mustang

Just a thought.  If Ford is really looking for research assistance that requires the knowledge and time of SAAC members, how about Ford assisting with some sponsorship funds for a SAAC convention or two as an incentive.

That's really funny. Hilarious in fact!

  I will say that, the Mach2 predated the Fiero and the Toyota MR2 by about 12 years.  Ford had the Pinto at the time so nobody at Ford needed a 2 seat commuter/economy car.

Looking at it again, for the late '60s it wasn't far from a producable car BUT what about everything it would need to conform to now with the EPA like crash worthiness, etc.

I think someone is looking at it?

How far has the current Mustang evolved from the 65? Is it at the end of the line and could the Mach II breath a new extension to it?

Again, like it or not but the success of the C8 has everyones attention.

I don't think a bridge really ever existed. It was more like a mirage Ford was projecting?

There was lots of snickering behind our backs at Ford about us. Shelby had to step in and made a phone call in Michigan to get the Chrysler track for us.

When Ford heard about it all of a sudden a Ford test track became available.

I miss CS. He wasn't perfect but neither am I or SAAC.
