1966 Mustang Coupe - Subtle, But Deadly
http://image.mustangandfords.com/f/featuredvehicles/1964_1973_mustang/mdmp_1202_1966_mustang_coupe_subtle_but_deadly/39573459+ppromo_large/mdmp-1202-1966-mustang-coupe-subtle-but-deadly-000.jpg
On top of the stroker Windsor sits a triple two-barrel setup from Barry Grant, with a unique combination of impressive appearance, two-barrel part throttle economy, and plenty of total airflow (http://www.mustangandfords.com/featuredvehicles/1964_1973_mustang/mdmp_1202_1966_mustang_coupe_subtle_but_deadly/index.html)It would be easy to dismiss David Cole's '66 coupe as nothing more than a nicely painted early Mustang with a big set of wheels and tires. After all, with a basic hardtop silhouette, dark paint, and stock sheetmetal, this isn't a car that'll reach out and grab your attention like a slap in the face. Rather, it draws you in only when observed closely, whereupon it surely won't disappoint sharp eyes who care to review the details. It's a Mustang that might not even draw a crowd at a large show, yet for those who understand that great cars aren't defined by bright colors and big scoops, this one will reward a thorough inspection. More importantly, it rewards the owner every time he slips behind the wheel. Call it subtlety at its best.
