I truly thought that Ford was gonna use the MM as a test mule for the 3V heads. I knew it would never see the blower though.

I thought it was interesting that grey was to be a color probably instead of SB. Also wonder what the "special" colors would have been. Maybe something like the kooky Mopar colors. Did Ford use crazy colors with the 60's era cars? I can't recall any color that was that radical.

Do the right thing and get your money in now. Or wait, 'cause this Marauder thing is only going to get better, and there's no end in sight. They're making up for lost time.Little did they know what damage would be caused by a soccer mom... :depress:

There was that light puke green color. A lot of Mustangs and Mavericks looked like a baby puked on them.

I never did like the 18's much seeing as though Dodge was doing that years prior and had allready moved up to 19's and 20's.
