Ford made SO many of them resulting in them being SO cheap and they were SO easy to modify. Most were 4 and 6 cylinders with some real 5.0s, and a few Cobras and other 5.0s that were true contenders to be reckoned with. The idiots in the high school parking lot who put the 5.0 badges on and tried to act cool were fools then just as the idiots with the 6 cylinder Lemans with the sky high rear were trying to pretend their car was fast 10-15 years earlier. The truly fast cars were always respected (unless daddy was writing the checks ;-) ).
