Here are a couple of pics of my 15 year old son's first car.  It is a 71.  He had the rear spoiler added and got a new 4bbl carb & intake for Christmas.  He will be turning 16 in July and can't wait to get his license.  Let him know what you think of it.....Tank.

Actually he's not like most kids. I have raised him around old cars, I have an old Poncho myself.
He is very meticulous when it comes to his car.  He takes really good  care of it.  He has worked very hard the last two summers to save some money for it and he is not going to rag it out. 

BTW...we are rednecks

Beautiful car, the 1971 Mustangs are easily some of my favorite. I say keep the rear spoiler, it adds a lot and in a good way. Has he ever considered a chin spoiler?

well, my first was the 71 plymouth in the "members other rides section" with a built up 440...everyone said i'd be dead and the car wrecked...5 years later, we're both still kickin'

sweet car BTW i drive by one every day that's like a gunmetal color...sweet

i'm not much on the rims either, but they do have the "look" the older cars should have

Actually these are the wheels that came on the car when we bought it.  He wants to change them, but I won't let him....yet.  I would like to see some of the Magnums on there...he likes the more modern style wheels.   No way he is putting any big wheels on there...lol.

Thanks for all the comments.  He likes to hear them!

really? REALLY? W0W....so i guess my camaro is bad news...

17" torque thrust II's r newer rims...although they r a new take on a classic rim...but still they r "newer"



and there is no reason why u couldnt do the torque thrust II's they look sick on anything. hell u could even stay old school and do the 16" torque thrust d's, they make them in just about any size u want.
