My son's friend's Dad wanted to get some photos of some Fords the other day. This is one of them.

Herb,
In the April 2021 issue of the "Mustang Times" magazine, the story describing the 1911 Torpedo and the 2014 Mustang is found. The story is written by Kevin Kelly and is quite interesting. The story is called "Bookend Fords."

Thanks for that info. I haven't seen it yet.
The photos were taken in my front yard.

At a show a few years ago a few Mustang guys wanted a similar photo.

The first photo is very nice. Which car would you take if offered? I would take the 1911 over the mustang. You can go to a Ford dealer and order a new mustang, but try to order a 1911 Torpedo. ( I did order a new mustang once, back in 1965)
