No he owned it for a while. His parents moved and built the pole barn, then he drove it in
It’s more a true ignored car. He lives too far away to do any restoration himself and is too lazy to sell it.
I drive a 2015 Mustang GT with the Coyote V8 and I LOVE IT.
That said, a little bit of engineering trivia (you may already know it): One reason in-line six’s are very good is that this engine configuration is inherently balanced. Pretty much just put it together and it’s good. Very smooth. And, V-12’s are just two 6’s along side each other...
Yep, already knew it. It’s inherently stable.
My wife’s BMW has an in-line 6 and it’s smooth as silk........................when it runs....................
“I drive a 2015 Mustang GT with the Coyote V8 and I LOVE IT.”
After I retired in 2014 I got a 2016 Mustang, 6-speed manual transmission, 6-cylinder, 300hp Mustang in triple yellow. I LOVED it so MUCH 5,000 miles later I traded it in for a 2016 Mustang GT Premium.
THIS one was in competition orange with black stripes, 6-speed manual transmission and EVERY performance enhancing upgrade available !!!
It had 10,000 miles on it and I HAD to replace the straight pipe exhaust because it was scaring all the horses next door !!!
What a GREAT car - the LAST GREAT V-8 engine that will ever be made ( my car has the Gen 2 Coyote engine ).
This engine can wake the dead.
The Pinto just wouldn’t be the same without the exploding gas tank (That Ralph Nader assured us came as a standard feature)...
Nice!
