I have a small shop in Florida where my Son and I restore and modify muscle cars. I have owned my 1969 428 Cobra Jet Mustang since 1970. I bought the shell from Hubert Platt who was a member of the Ford Drag Team in 1970 and turned it into a Super Stocker in 1971. I raced it in SS/GA until 1974 setting 2 NHRA records and winning class at the Winternationals in Pomona in 1972.

I restored it in 2004 close to the way it was raced

My current project is a 1968 Mustang Coupe that I will post pictures of later.
