Yeah, I remember the 350s, as well... My dad brought one home for a couple weeks... The thing I remember about it is that it had a little round medallion looking thing in the middle of brake pedal that read "DISC BRAKES"...
But I wasn't a "...Stang'r"... My mom and I shared the 2nd company car that the ol' man was allowed so, seeing as he and Lee Iacocca were buds at Ford, they decided to get us a '65 poppi red Mustang convert... I hated the car and wouldn't drive it... Drove my ol' 55 Fairlane with no grill and an after-market floor shifter...
So my dad asked me if there was anything that Ford made that I would drive... Other than the '55 beater... Not sure why he cared???... I said, yeah... Order me a Falcon Futura, maroon, black guts, bench seat, 289 High-Performance (271 HP - same engine as in the AC Cobra), 4 speed top loader...
It was a beast!!! It ran low 13s and would kill most Vettes, all GTOs, and 100% of the street lead-sleds like 409 SuperSports, 390/401 Fords...
BTW, I recently learned that there were only eleven 289/271 Falcons built... Not sure if mine survived... Never been able to find it on the internet... But if it's out there, the front bench seat is the give away...
I'm with Spawzer... I'd still love to launch a 13 second muscle car down a quarter mile track...
