    I like the EXP. My father had one in the early 90s. It does in fact look like a mini mustang.

    Looks like it has potential. A good clean up and scrub down would go a long way. I like them things.

    Those are more of a Mazda 323 than a Ford iirc. I wonder if you could swap a 323 GTX engine
