50YO Montanan Gets Mustang Back

Bill Moore blindfolded his mother, twirled her around and pushed her toward the back door of the bar. Once outside, the blindfold was lifted and there in front of Julie was her birthday present: a red 1969 Ford Mustang fastback. And not just any ‘69 Mustang fastback. It was the same Mustang Julie had purchased when she was 15 years old, back in 1973 when she was a sophomore at Sentinel High School, as her first car. “I just about fainted,” Julie says. “I was totally floored.” It was Bill Moore who found the Mustang, covered in pitch and sitting in disrepair under a pine tree in a Missoula backyard. He’d run into the man who bought it from his mother 10 years ago, and told the owner if he ever wanted to sell it, to give him first crack at it/ Vince Devlin , Missoulian. More here .

Question: If you could have one vehicle back that you’ve owned, in mint condition, which one would it be?
