The Sport was in a magazine....

The Sport was one of the featured reader's ride cars in Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords magazine. Not a huge deal, but still pretty sweet.

I know I'm late to the game, but I finally got around to reading a few of my back issues and I saw your car.  That is way cool to be represented in that magazine.  I can't think of anyone better to represent our group.

Go Fast the first time.  The tickets the same.

The most recent issue of Muscle Mustangs and fast Fords. It's in the reader's section. I'd love a full write up, but hey, still cool.

Hey that's awesome Vinnie. Now I'll have to actually pick up a copy of MMFF:)

Jeremy aka 347Thunder got to be in the mag a couple years ago too.

So what have you done to The Sport in the last year while I've been gone?

Thanks. I have one copy on my desk to thrash, and a few more tucked away. May never happen again. I like it when any of our cars are put out there. They are getting hard to find and rarely seen.

Sell your car for lots of money. It's a "famous magazine car" now. Automatically worth top $$$$$ ;).
