Found this pair of decals inside owners manual. This is the back side (the part the decal comes off of).

Here is the pair of stickers...
Anyone ever seen these before?

---------

Question are these stickers Ford or GSP oriented ?

Ford

I know in the D position it would give the driver more control (throttle steer and braking) but seems like like would severely limit your top end?

All about keeping the cars from hunting for OD (and locking up the torque converter).

As for top speed, have you ever wound out a manual, 3.08-equipped 5.0 in 4th and then dropped it into 5th?

Are these decals reproduced or available anywhere?

Not to my knowledge, but I have someone working on it ( at least a few anyway)...

Made contact with retired Trooper Rick Wilcox today
 

Spoke with retired Trooper Rick Wilcox today.
During that conversation I got the story on 8292 ;)


First accident happened at around 3800 miles. Trooper Wilcox was initiating a chase of a speeding pick up truck. He had just turned on his blue lights and was about to hit his siren when he noticed a woman apparently pulling a U-turn right in front of him. he instantly let off the gas and she stopped mid way. Well, Trooper Wilcox (thinking she had seen him) got back on the gas and as he approached her she started moving again. They collided and as he passed by he could see the undercarriage of her car. Needles to say her car was totaled but the Mustang only needed core support; fender and bumper cover.

Accident # 2 happened at 24,909 miles.

Trooper Wilcox was traveling down the road when out of a ditch ran a large (140+ lbs) dog. No avoiding it just POW ! Trooper Wilcox hit the brakes but the large dog lodged underneath the left side of the Mustang. The skid marks were from the right side tires only. The crash investigators determined that the dog had lodged underneath the left side of the car lifting the drivers wheels completely off the ground. There was in fact blood and hair for some distance where the driver side tire marks should have been. By the time the dog dislodged from underneath the Mustang it was completely side ways and still in a skid. This caused the car to veer off the roadway and strike a large popular tree. The accident was ruled completely unavoidable and Trooper Wilcox was instantly assigned a "NEW" 89 Mustang (9222). Trooper Wilcox was a participant in the ACE program and was one of the Top DUI Troopers. 8292 had 17 lightning bolts affixed to the drivers door at the time of this accident. He did not remember how many were affixed to the door of 9222 when it was turned in but it was an ACE car as well. Trooper Wilcox is going to try to find his old in service pics of these two Mustangs for me.

I thoroughly enjoyed talking with him about his two Mustangs and will stay in touch with him as these car are restored.

Congrats Bobby! :cool:
