No hot rodder in his right mind is going to spend double for more weight and less power.....

Seriously --- it's the same reason the SBC is in "everything" when you go to a hot rod show.... the SUPPORT for aftermarket anything is like 10 to 1

I'd talked about a flat plane Coyote motor.... "just because" but of course -- that comes back to spending double for less. Cool - no doubt...

What's that saying? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

Me too !

I can't help myself after spending 2 years of my life building my own wide body Mustang. These cars just take to it so well because of the character line going down the car. I've had many Mustang enthusiasts look at my car and not realize it had been widened.

Surprised about knocking off the rear trunk spoiler, I've seen a lot of guys combine them with wings but come to think of it I always kind of wondered if that was a good idea, and now we know - The Sutton has spoken.

If anyone is inspired and interested in acquiring a wide body '68 Mustang with a Sutton-esque suspension let me know - I can't afford this hobby anymore ! I can't seem to leave well enough alone - I was talking with my wife about what I could get for it and I was like "hell, its free, just take over the damn payments !"

Johnny, I'm sure you know the saying ...

"You write the check & we'll put any damn engine in it you want!"

I can't be too "right" Joe --- building two cars at the same time just proves it.
