    I actually know right where these are!! When I saw the first pic I immediately recognized them. Some coworkers and I were heading out to a well-known landmark near these Mustangs a few years ago and drove past. As the owner of 10+ Mustangs over the years I was needless to say intrigued. Unfortunately we were on a tight time frame and merely got to rubber-neck as we drove by. Unfortunately we came back in the dark and didn't see them again. I've always told myself I'd go back and try to find them some day. Out of respect for Brian's desire to keep the location secret I won't say where they are. Besides, I'm only a winning lottery ticket away from heading back and buying the whole lot. Thanks for the post guys, can't tell you how many times I've asked myself if I really saw what I thought I saw. Guess I'm not as crazy as people think.......

    I'm really disappointed. I've always heard such amazing things about the Mustang Ranch, but just look at it!

    For the Guy who has just completed the advanced coarse in classic car restoration, on the same day that he finds that he has inherited a million dollars. Who's idea of heaven is to work on old Mustangs to the day he dies, well I guess then, today is your lucky day.

    @FTGDWolverineEdition'09: The HP Laserjet is the most coveted of the special edition Mustangs. They came in only black or white, and yes, that printer looking thing is a fully functional hood scoop.

    Whoa! Whoa! Don't write off the wrecks, uber rusted, and unrepairable ones too fast!!!

    There is money in them thar' VINny numbers!!!

    Prior to scrapping keep the vin # body section, data plate, matching # motor (if available), or other specific ID details when a valid title still exists or even if a valid title doesn't exist. With the rise of reproduction complete steel bodies, a valid VIN maintains the vehicles "original" status versus having to go to kit car or specialty manufactured registrations and paper work.

    Just sayin'
