Back in the day, my father had a '67 Mustang that he often raced at GLD and of course it saw some street action as well. He was telling me tonight that he won the "Falls National" two years in a row (just a yearly race at Tower with the group he hung out with at the time nothing official - just for fun).
Here are some pictures that I was able to scan in tonight. The car was sold to Jim (Dr. Ford) and now owned by a man named Steve, if I recall correctly.
There's plenty of stories about it. If you see in the pictures, it was hit by a drunk driver when it was in the garage at my Grandma's house, which explains the new rear end. It was repainted blue before it was sold to Jim. There are a few pictures of it at the World of Wheels show.
Well enough typing, here are the pictures.
