What a blast to drive , this car rips !!!!
In case you are wondering ,the nickname (Bob 9")came from me always bringing Ford 9 " center chunks to Redline Auto to change gears for me , so that neded up being the joke of the day and my nickname as well !
My Dad bought this car back in 1976 and he gave it to me in 1982 , I've owned it ever since . Which means it has been in my family for over 33 years !!!
It will be finished up in the next few mos. and I'll be sure to get you some pics , hopefully since there aren't ever any 69 pro street Cougars in you magazine I'll have a good chance of getting in !
