I have been a car spotter for many decades and I can honestly say that I have not seen a Mustang Stallion (the 1967 dealer version, not the 1976 Mustang II version). Wait, I do recall seeing a 67 Mustang convertible with the Cougar taillights. Heck, there were millions of Mustangs around back then and people were looking for ways to personalize them or otherwise make them stand out from the countless others around.

When I see the blue fastback & big tires I instantly think of that 1973 movie The Last American Hero with a young Jeff Bridges and Gary Busey.

wow looks like a good deal eh?

Imagine if a dealer put "Born for Street Racing" in their ads today?

The police would impound all the cars on the lot for a week, take the license plates and levy a $2000 fine. If the dealer had the audacity to open their mouth in protest, the cops would make the fine $10000.

I say it in jest, but the Street Racing (sic) law as it is written is a piece of crap. It is heavy-handed and the cops have been told to enforce it mercilessly. An errant tire squeal is treated the same as driving through a residential area at 100 km/h, which is utterly ridiculous.

The cops don't make the laws; that law came from the McGuinty government. The OPP commissioner Julian Fantino gives his input but he does not have the final say in the matter.

Heard of that long ago. That picture of the rear end is fairly recent. Look at the Volvo on the left or the mini van in the background.

Drove by where that dealer was last night. In the early eighties they built a large building that still stands. I think it was where City Buick/Pontiac was on the Danforth.

Fortunately, mine is so loud I don't think you could hear the tires squeal.

WOW on the Stallion gascap!!!
Looks like somebody's a winner as the Kiji ad is gone already?.
Has somebody here crossed over to the darkside?.

I first knew of the Mainway Stallions from an ad they ran in a Mosport program..
And we've looked at them briefly here in a past thread along w/ a few other more well known but unique Canadian dealer specials!.

What happened?.

We have a member here with a Black Shelby   He believes in investing in the economy  lol   A healthy car guy  loves all automotive History..  Remember, it wasn't for Henry FORD, we would not have, the assenbly lines, of today...

Hey, I also have one of Henry`s 1928 Model A`s

Guy that owned the gas cap replied to my phone message a day latter. Said he had hundreds of emails but no one had pulled the trigger on it. He said he also had a set of NOS 428 Cobra Jet emblems and I could have it all for $175. He was working in Oakville so he drove them to me in Stoney Creek. Would have never seen them if Fred had not posted them here on this great site.
