Look what showed up on Wednesday ...

Not really a replacement. The Johnny Cash Mustang was one-of-a-kind. I have wanted a GT350 since 1966.

It's even the original color scheme. So who drives the RS now? Or does this replace it? :thumbwink:

RS is Liz’s Daily driver. What a fun commuter ride!

GT 350 is a garage and track queen. Not sure it’s a good Autocross car.

Well, Rob Edwards showed up at the last event with an unmodified 2007 Shelby (which for him, is like bringing a new car)...now's your turn to come out!

Not sure this car's gearing is appropriate for autox but Brooksville is probably a good place to begin to learn how to drive it.
