Thanks a lot for this tour through a secret backyard near Teheran by an anonymous Mustang enthusiast
Rare finds are typically found where usually nobody seeks. I am pretty sure none of you has ever been in Iran to search for Mustangs, and if so being you were for sure not allowed to enter a iranian Ford enthusiast's junkyard. So here is your chance to stroll through secret aisles of broken Mustangs.
While on the search for a true Shelby, our reporter - who wants to stay anonymous for obvious reasons - found out that there is still a bigger number of classic Ford iron around in the Iran than he expected. Even Shelbys occasionally pop up here and there and he is still hoping to find one soon.
Well let's join our enthusiasts walk and look what he found:
First is a lime green 68 Fastback, next a maybe bronze or brown 72 Mach1 next to a yeloow/black striped 71, third with the customized Z-stripes is said to be a 71 T-5, although it could not be verified, as the car had been stripped between 2 visits.
Next on the picture side is a 66, then some views of the parts corner are shown. The parting out serves of course to get other Mustangs back on the road.
Further down you see a red 68 Hardtop with modified wheel wells. and a 68 green Fastback between two Mustangs of the later 76/77 variety. There are also running Mustangs on the spot. We hope to get pics of those as well, so stay tuned for an update here soon. Well, our reporter did not have that bad luck on his search for a Shelby recently. Being directed by sb., who said there would be Shelby-like car in his neighbourhood, he finally spotted this Daytona bought it on the spot. Let's hear his words of joy and pride (although it is not a Shelby yet).
"When I mentioned to a friend my disappointment about the recent Shelby locating that I could not buy, he asked me what a Shelby looked like. I explained to him the fact that it has a fiber glass front end, hood scoops etc.. He mentioned that he knew of a similar car which had been sitting in a yard for twenty years. After getting the address, I rushed over. After explaining to the lady (her deceased husband was the owner) that I heard that she had an old car sitting in the yard, she let me in. As I walked in the yard I saw a big red American car, which indeed had a fiberglass nose. But the funny thing was that one of its headlights was open (like a Corvette). Unfortunately it wasn't a Shelby. But (fortunately) it was a 1969 Dodge Daytona !!!. It has a 440, 23,000 miles and is only missing the rear wing (which the owner has promised to find). It was parked by the owner after the revolution and it has sat there ever since until I bought and
