Subject: [ASC McLaren ] Re: on ebay - Ford:Mustang McLaren ASC/McLaren Ltd Ed. 2 seater Convertible #475

Body:
They didn't stuff a 351 in there...it's a mistake...No McLarens or
Mustangs came with a 351 (except the 1995 Cobra R). The 351 will not
fit in a mustang body without a cowl hood either. :-) Hope that helps.
