    Dave, that's great! I used to see Mercury front clips on Rancheros, and Buick/Olds/Pontiac on El Caminos (less common around here), but the Mustang treatment is wild.

    Stayed at a motel in New Mexico in January 1997, where the car parked next to mine was a Corvette station wagon - looked like the back of a Vega wagon grafted onto a 65-66 Vette. Waste of a good Vette, but it was nicely done. Still, I'll stick with the Mustang Ranchero. Thanks for putting the photo up.
