Good thing that truck grill is not white. It already looks like a urinal.

From where it was posted:

Ford had Vincent's "Shorty Mustang" built by Detroit Steel Tube Company with one of the 10 pre-production 1964½ Mustangs used as a starting point. 16 inches were chopped in total. It was fitted with a 260-cu.in. V-8 bored and stroked to 302-cu.in., and was constructed of fiberglass from the cowl rearward.

After it made the rounds of the show circuit as a '68 refresh proposal, Vincent became convinced the car would soon be crushed. This is where the story takes a twist. He actually stole it from Ford, and had it bricked-up behind a warehouse wall in Inkster, Michigan.

Vincent wasn't able to make the rent payments on the warehouse, so the insurance company took possession of the space. In doing so, they took the Mustang too, as Ford had already received insurance money for the stolen vehicle. All this transpired just 6 months after it was hidden away.

Enter the lucky executive whose desk the paperwork landed on. He purchased it and quickly put it up for sale in a collector car magazine. That's where Bill Snyder the current owner, found it and promptly bought it. He dreamed of owning the car since he first saw it in '66.

Mr. Snyder has said, "The car goes like stink".

It will be shown at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance in Florida from March 8-10, 2013.
