Topic: Cyclone near miss-

I was snapping some shots of the Cherokee coming down T5 and was in position to catch this:

Cherokee door handles are great bottle openers.

Re: Cyclone near miss-

Speaking of Cyclones, when is someone going to bring a '68-69 Mercury Cyclone fastback to Lemons?

Mercury Cyclone Spolier with a Cy/Ty turbo 4.3 and AWD swap?  I smell a winner....

Re: Cyclone near miss-

Also, for Lemons use, I think T5/The Cyclone should be called "Tropical Depression."

Probably as likely as someone showing up to Lemons in a 1968 SS Camaro... smile

A Early Fairlane might be do-able though...

Not so! You can get ugly Cyclones for LeMons-grade prices. For example:

http://images.craigslist.org/3n73k53m25O25Q35Re9bs6dc636bfffb91a6f.jpg
This '68 in North Carolina. Seller wants a grand, will take less, and you can sell a bunch of trim and interior pieces for decent cash.

http://images.craigslist.org/3k23od3pf5O25Ta5Q59b4bffff8e21e351574.jpg
This '69 has a $2,200 asking price, but you'll be able to sell plenty of bits off it. Why is that, you ask? Because it's a jen-yoo-wine Cale Yarborough Spoiler II, that's why! You could be a Lemons hero and the subject of a lifetime kill-on-sight fatwa issued by numbers-matching Ford fanatics the world over. Double win!

Re: Cyclone near miss-

I think you'd get more attention if you brought a genuine COPO car to a Lemons event big_smile
