German Corvette? 1969 Opel GT

British Racing Green: 1971 MGB GT

327/4-Speed: 1964 Chevrolet Corvette

35K Miles? 1972 Ford Mustang Fastback

Here’s an interesting find, it’s a generic 1972 Ford Mustang fastback, and that’s about it, nothing special beyond that. The seller states, “Clock shows 35K miles” (I wonder what the odometer shows – just kidding…). Anyway, let’s look it… more»

Short-Lived Production: 1971 International Scout 800B
