Thanks Tom-I'm a pretty big Mustang fan. My dad had a couple when I was a kid in the sixties. I like the fastback's the Mach's, really like the converts like Simon's, and of course the shelby's. The one I have I bought for my daughter. She totaled it driving to work on a rainy morning. She walked away without a scratch. A friend of mine reserected it and now it's almost ready to get back on the road. I got my kid a different car, and now the mustang is mine, although my 14 year old daughter has her eyes on it...............
Glad your daughter was not injured in the crash. I really like the current Mustang design. It reminds me of the old fastbacks/Mach's. I didn't care for the previous designs. The 1987 designs were cool too though. I really like that Bullett edition.
A sleeper of a movie that is very enjoyable is the Matador with Pierce Brosnan post Bond so to speak. Eveyone should check it out - you will be pleasantly surprised.
I'm afraid its Sean Connery all the way for me. There was nothing wrong with Daniel Craig's preformance, but I just felt that he lacked the depth of character that Sean exudes. And also the movie was very "Americanized"... it focused too much on flashy, unrealistic special effects, and lost some of the charming humor of the old Bond films. Just my 2 cents...
I have to disagree jb. My favorite was Connery until I saw Casino Royale. I read somewhere that Craig wanted to build up and look like he could actually do the things he was doing on camera and I think he pulled it off well. It is as you say 'Americanized" though. I think Craig's Bond is a much darker character than the previous Bonds. More serious. More kick your butt and less womanizing. More feelings. I can't wait for the next Bond, 'Quantum of Solace'. It's the first sequel to a Bond film. It's supposed to start off about an hour after 'Casino' left off.
ORIGINAL: TANúñez I read somewhere that Craig wanted to build up and look like he could actually do the things he was doing on camera and I think he pulled it off well.
I think that's code for 'he wanted to look like Connery...' which he does, a lot, the first hard-ass, hairy chested Bond in a long time and an obvious tip of the hat to Sean. But as you say, it's somewhat darker, things aren't so kitsch as in the swingin' 60's...
Same as tanunez expect enter the dragon in place of the passion.
PS If anyone has a 69 charger I would be more than happy to clean it for free. All I ask is to put pedal to the metal ONCE for a lifetimes cleaning duties.
best movie i have seen this year is Blood Monkey. ..they are like regular monkeys but they are thirsty for blood very very scarey and original...its set in a jungle..its cutting edge because in most horrors the list likely one always survives...not in this one...everyone dies
thats what happens when you seen every movie in your dvd store...u get relegated to b grade and c grade movies

has more or less same chassis as your mustang simon, just different body
It certainly is. Mine is an early '65 (originally a 260 V8 now a 302) produced in March 1964. If you remove the steering wheel hub, it says "Falcon Sprint" underneath
Here she is near my house in Spain a couple of years ago.
Still in the garage down there and I do miss her but not much chance to drive it over here with the fuel prices and crappy weather.

Try " Local Hero" a film about Scotland, if you ever see it for rent.
You'll love it!
That's a beautiful film, one of my favourites. (Not a single car chase or gladiator anywhere, though...)

P.S. for the motorheads; it seems you guys only like American cars, but for a while in my yoof I had a 1958 MGA which was just great. Don't have a picture of it.
