Fun Thread...Cars that could have been!

Hey guys,

Been a while since we have had any threads just to shoot the breeze with so i thought id start one just for fun.

Here is the question....

What are one or two or even three cars that you wish ford or shelby built back in the Total Performance Years? The only rule to this game is that the car at least has to be plausible.


Best Regards,
Vern

Re: Fun Thread...Cars that could have been!

I always liked the Mach II show car. I believe that Ford used a '67 Mustang platform to build it.

The Mustang station wagon that was on the cover of Motor Trend. It looked cool. I liked the Cougar 2 it looked cool.

You of thought that they would have made more than 2 Boss 429 Cougars.

And, they probably had the thought: Boss 429 69/70 Shelbys. Maybe that one could have been a "KR" too.

Re: Fun Thread...Cars that could have been!

Hell, Unique performace had a whole bunch if cars that "could have been" but he screwed up. I bought 4 of them from the auction. My question should probably be a different thread but, what are the left overs worth?
