I spy...Mustangs and Fords
« on: June, 17, 2010, 12:36:11 PM »
The past few days I have seen a couple old mustangs/Fords in driveways, garages and even parking lot. It made me think we should have a thread for Spy pictures, just so everyone can see whats still out there. So lets see the spy pictures.


This one is a block or two from my house, looks to be a red 67/68 coupe under the cover. The doors are off and at least one fender is off as well. I'll walk the dog over there later and snap a better picture.

Yesterday as I was just getting onto the freeway something caught my eye.  Over in the storage yard I saw a 67 or 68 FB in a real fixer upper shape.

Yeah I know:

:WOP


Well in a couple weeks I'll be taking that same on ramp and will be ready for an emergency stop.....with my camera.

Snapped a pic of this one with my iPhone on my way to work on 880 Southbound between Fremont Blvd and Highway 84.

A Mopar guy(my son's mother's husband).  Several people have tried to get the old man that owns it to sell it, but he's going to fix it up someday.  I think he's in his 70's, so he better hurry up!

I know where there are more cars sitting in barns and garages, but I don't have pics.  One of them is a 66 A code 3-speed coupe with a bench seat.  I sat in it when I was in high school...I'm now 34... it had a dead battery and 4 flat tires back then but was simply beautiful otherwise.  It's still sitting there.  I hope someday that the people that own it give it to their daughter and she is able to get it back on the road.

Saw this one at the grocery store this morning. I think the owner must work there, I see it there quite often.

I do.  Not like it's gonna hurt the finish or anything.    Saw a pretty clean 71-73 coupe for sale around Selmer, TN yesterday.  I've gotta go back that way next week, so I'll sneak a pic then.

This is a 68 California Special a couple blocks from my house.  It was totally restored about a year + ago and has sat under a cover ever since.   Probably has less than 500 miles on it since the restore.

Here's one that is for sale down the street in front of a grocery store. No price. Has a 4 speed. Says it's a GT.
