I dug these up off the external drive tonight out of boredom. It is my mom's 71 Grande 'vert with a 351 Cleveland and a C6. She is the second owner, bought it in '74 and was her only driver for 10 years so I grew up in it - even learned how to drive on it. All it really needs now is a clean set of 17" chrome Torq Thrust type rims and it will look right. I took these pick about 4 years ago after a new paint job. She is in Atlanta but I need to get this car out here to AZ. The white 97 in the background in one of the pics is my last Cobra. That's the only car I ever regret selling and it just happens to be the only pic I have of it.

How sweet!!! And I'll feel your pain about your Cobra, like when I sold my 66 Shelby to Buy a house.... I blew that one!!

Clean looking car for sure. Man did they go big with those things or what! And why is it that some of us have NO pictures of our favorite car we've owned in the past? I have the same issue with my blown 96 GT- absolutely ZERO pictures. Great looking car man.

Yeah, it's a hog and would not have been my first choice or year or color but at this point is has a lot of personal value. Back then, they actually went to pick up a 71 burgandy Cougar with a 351 cleveland/4 speed and a white interior but the guy had just sold it.
