This car was the FASTEST thing I ever built-this was a Fully built 231 Turbo Buick V6 with the best of the best-it had a stock appearing John Craig Turbocharger-SMC alky kit-Stretch intercooler-Built 200R4 transmission with a 3200 Stall-I would usually get kicked out of the Racetrack after my 1 st pass,FOR running too FAST-LOL-no bigblock could touch it-

This was one of my MANY 5.0 mustangs-the only Automatic out of the bunch-1989 GT with a 150 Shot of Nitrous oxide from N.O.S along with Dual bottles with a Nitrous Oxide Systems brand Pusher fuel pump-it also had the usual mustang mods of 2 1/2 inch american thunder flowmaster cat back-offroad H-pipe-MSD 6AL-K&N panel filter-Fully built AOD with 2800 Stall converter-Funny thing was 1st time I hit the Nitrous button with small 75 HP pills, The original AOD tranny Blew Up!I then had my tranny guy build me a Nice AOD that could live under stress and put the 150 HP pills in-This car ALSO got me booted off the Track-LOL-The tech guy Got mad because he Told me 'You can run,But dont Hit the nitrous oxide" I then went in the waterbox heated up my Dragradial's-then purged it at the staging lane, Now with sytem fully armed,when the light turned The car jumped like a monster,The run was FUN but I never got my time slip, The Tech guy was MAD he told me to pack up & Get the F***k out of his track..

I remember a lot of friends buying new late 70's and 80's Z/28, TA, Mustang GT, GN, and SS Monte and some still have them.

I still have my old 86 Chevy PU, two 80s Motion cars and a box of cassette tapes waiting for the 80s come back. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Man, Camaros new or old, I just love them all.

I've had a couple of those Monte Carlo SS's.... a white on grey '85 and a burgandy on maroon '86.... Both had buckets console and the '86 was a 3.73 posi car. I also had a black and silver '85 442. I sold it to my parents about 7-8 years ago.... it's been a garage baby all its life... I prefer the '80's G-bodys over the 3rd gen F-bodys. Too bad they didn't put the TPI set up on the G-bodys though.

Good stuff. I like the little red notchback, but I've got a weakness for 'em. Got one in the garage and four more in storage. Speaking of which, I need to get the one in the garage to the chassis shop to get caged. Then it's off to paint prison for a few years. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Good looking Motion Monte.

I've been curious if there were dealer prepped Montes and third gen F-bods available back then. I've never heard of any, but I haven't been looking very hard. There were dealer built Mustangs as early as 1982.

I've a Stage III Dominator, Tommie Vaughn GT40 notchback, Crawford Quarterhorse notchback, and a Cartech Turbo car all on my wishlist.

Oh, and Tony DeFeo's 87 LX Cars Illustrated test car. I'm going to find it one of these days, too.

Is this the Defeo mustang your talking about? If So-this particular article &amp;that style of car testing -got me excited about the then new muscle cars that where on the scene
