The Avid and Mustang

In Memory of Carroll Shelby I drove our Mustang to the airport today. I couldn't resist taking a few shots of the Avid and Stang together.

My favorite Mustang - airplane picture. Do not give a 17 year old a hot mustang and the combination to the airport gate. He had the Mustang 4 hours when this happened, obviously a rocket scientist. The Cessna was returning from a full RAM conversion. We just couldn't stop laughing the whole time we did this repair.

My Shelby....... 1987 CSX.. #701 of 750

Currently looking like this after the passenger door was backed into.....

It will never be worth as much as a Shelby Mustang, but it is still a fun car to drive.... The Turbo puts out 175 HP at 175 Ft. pounds of torque...

RIP Carrol...
