Re: Mustangs
The Mustang in the photo of Patti Young's is Hubert Platt's SS that he raced at Pomona and I bought in November 1969. As we were riding in the Ford Drag Team truck he said that Patti was using his car and he was getting it back and wanted to sell it for $3500.00.
This is how it looked when I got it  Pomona 1970 with rear wheels and slicks I borrowed from Hubert

Re: Mustangs
I have been trying forever to find information on a Mustang / Racer that was raced out of a Ford Dealership in Massachusetts where my Dad used to get his company car serviced and brought me there when I was very young and introduced me. It was a yellow mustang named "Super Duck" I believe..??...it was yellow and would have raced at NED....any info would be greatly appreciated...????
The guy had blonde hair and reminded me of Ronnie Sox... Rick Blake

Re: Mustangs
