Small world... my first new car was a red w/black interior '69 Mustang Mach 1, also with the 351. Way too cool for a 21 year old kid. The downside of it was I only owned it for six months. The Air Force decided they needed me somewhere else and re-assigned me to Japan. I couldn't take it with me.
My other car I wish I still owned was a '77 Datsun 280Z... at least I owned it for seven years before I had to sell it. You guessed it, got re-assigned to Japan again!!!
