It was back in 2008 when I first learned about a group of triple white feature cars that were displayed at the Ninth Annual Ford Motorsport Nationals held in Maple Grove, PA on June 26 & 27th, 1993. The details of these cars has since been somewhat of a...

“Feature car” collection – cars now for sale individually

Remember that collection of feature cars that was painstakingly assembled and then offerred for sale as a unit? Well, the owners of that collection have just informed me that the cars are now being offerred for sale individually. These are relatively low mileage fox body convertibles and I am...

Looking forward to top down driving

I had my TWF out for a ride today. Top up. Though, the weather is finally starting to feel like spring is coming. It is the kind of weather that makes you remember that owning a convertible is about the best thing ever. While out for the ride, I...

Feature Mustang Auction History Update

I just completed some updates to the 1992 and 1993 feature Mustang auction history pages. The request to add a search by sequence number was a feature that seemed too reasonable not to have. I too had experienced the need to look for auctions by this criteria while researching...

1992 Feature Mustang 1:24 Scale Replica

Mike G. just emailed me to provide pictures of his scale replica of his 1992 Feature car. We’ve seen one before for the 1993 Mustang but this is a nice set of pics of an outstanding effort. I asked Mike for some details on the build and he was glad...
