Last night we dropped by Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank…




I had the fortune to meet one of the editors from Mustang Monthly magazine, Miles Cook.
Miles brought his 1967 T5 Fastback which came back to the US from Germany. It is dark blue and GORGEOUS. For more info on T5’s go to: www.FordT5.com

Here’s a few more shots of this beauty…

Miles also has a 1969 Highland Green Fastback which he is preparing for the Silver State race in Nevada in September. For anyone that does not know about this race, you can check out the website: www.sscc.us.

I had not heard of this but it sounds pretty awesome. People run on a highway, LEGALLY averaging speeds from 95-150 mph for 90 miles. There’s also an unlimited class where the drivers go as fast as they can for the 90-mile run–averaging more than 200 mph in some cases. The route has a twisty section so it’s about speed, navigating and driving ability. OK, more about fun than anything. Miles has already run this car five times, and has had a blast getting it up to 150 mph with the 351W engine and five-speed transmission in this baby.

This car has a lot of suspension mods on it, no doubt making flying over the bumps in the road a little smoother.

Miles invited me to help navigate on the next Silver State race, if I go I will have some awesome blog material for you for sure.
