Always thought "Quarterhorse" was a great name for a Mustang

Here's a couple from the Portage,MI area- Dick Loehr's "Stampede" Mustang and Paul Stewart/Craig Clapp's "Jack the Bear" cars. I believe the last car they owned,an early 60's Corvette, was sold to Mike Keener. Maybe Mike can comment on this.

Actually the Jack the Bear car was sold to John Piper but Merc and I raced it for him. Here is a shot of the only time I ever drove this car which was the 79 Springnationals at Columbus.
