^^^I guess so re mpg lol

 

This is great....Keep them coming! I love it.

 

originally known as a secretaries car

 

For model year 1974, you could not buy a Mustang with a V8 engine. Only the 2.3 I4 and 2.8 V6 were available.

 

And hopefully they learned from that mistake, and don't ever do that again. Nothing against 4 or 6 bangers, but it's nice to have the option of a V8

 

Awesome thread!

Mustang Fact: A Saleen with bumper number 6 isn't a real saleen.

 

Cool! What's the reasoning behind that?

 

Good question. I've heard this before but never heard why. Maybe a superstitious thing?

 

Never heard this before. Do tell the story.

 

LOL, its a funny story. In 1984, Steve Saleen's secretary miscounted the Saleens coming off the production line. She miscounted number 6 as number 9. As a result, no Saleen with bumper number 6 Saleen was registered that year. Steve Saleen thought the whole thing was a hoot and a tradition was born. No number 6 Saleen exists - ever!
