Countdown to Kickoff: 64 Days

As we continue on our daily countdown towards the 2007 season, we have arrived at 64. Our representative for this day will be the Ford Mustang, which debuted in 1964...


This car represents everything that is American and just flat-out exudes greatness. Nevermind all of these wimpy foreign cars, somebody get me a car like "Eleanor" from the Nicolas Cage film Gone in Sixty Seconds.

Fight On!

I did not know there was an original Gone in 60, the Shelby in the Nicolas Cage version of Gone in 60 was a 1967 model. My post is about the original Mustang that debuted in 1964, according to Wikipedia...
