Did you know Wes Anderson? He owned a few Boss 429 Mustangs, some SOHC 427 engines, and was also into Honda CBX 6cyl bikes. I knew Wes and Cindy back in the early 90's, when I was running the CBX Club.

No, that's why I put officially in quotes. I was in Fort Worth for training three of those months and then living in a hotel in Liberal, Kansas during the week for almost the rest of the time. I think I may have been there for a combined 2 to 3 months. Saw enough to know it was a dying town.

It's crazy how big cars have gotten. Even more recent examples. For instance, E39 M5's are barely any bigger than an M2. That's only a 15 year spread.
