A Son Remembers His Father Through Their Mutual Love of Cars (http://www.mustangandfords.com/featuredvehicles/1964_1973_mustang/mdmp_1103_1966_ford_mustang_fastback_gt_350_clone/index.html)Growing up with a father who's a "gearhead" or simply likes classic cars can have a lasting effect on you-most notable of which are the memories of the cars dear, old Dad brought home all the time. Case in point is Andrew Actman of Demarest, New Jersey. His late father, Richard, was an avid car collector; always looking for the next great car to add to his collection. A true car guy, Andrew's dad had a little bit of everything, including a Delorean, a '57 Chevy Bel Air, and a '57 Thunderbird in the garage, but he wanted something special. He wanted a Shelby Mustang G.T. 350 clone; something that looked classic Mustang, but had the oats to back it up and handle more on par with its modern counterpart. Andrew's dad searched out for a Mustang shop to build him just such a clone, but the final product wasn't exactly what Andrew's father wanted. The DSS 331 small-block stroker engine ran great, and the car looked like a Shelby clone, but the bodywork wasn't that great and some of the parts choices were questionable. But Andrew's father added the '66 fastback to his collection and moved on.
