Since all the other 'Snakes seem to be too busy with the grim reaper
thread to reply, I'll point out the car in the picture is a '67 Cougar
and the guy's username is "427GT," which suggests two things: (1) that
the car is a GT-E, the "E" designating the Cougar-only 427 side-oiler
option, available in '67 and '68 until the advent of the Cobra Jet, and
(2) that somebody else in that forum beat the guy to the "427GT-E"
handle.

Let's try something that actually makes sense. Neither the 427 nor
the GT-E were available in 1967. If you knew anything about Cougars,
you would see the 6.5 liter badge behind the front wheel well, and
figure out that this is a 390 GT with a 427 transplant.
You are WAY out of your league here. '67 427's. BWAHAHA!!

"Poor Willy. How can one man be SO wrong about
everything?"
It's amazing, isn't it? Nothing but bullshit and meaningless conjecture.

In '68 Ford must have toyed with the idea of putting the 427 in the Mustang.
Someone we know and love even saw a yellow coupe with a 427 in it way back
then. Even the VIN Code Converters today list W Code as an engine option in
'68 Mustangs. Personally, I think Ford wanted to do it, but figured out
they would not be able to keep up with demand because of some production
difficulties associated with the 427 back then, plus they knew the 428 was
on the way. So far, no verifiable proof has been found, sorry Bill, so most
people keep this alive as an urban legend. Later, in the model year, they
did put the 428 in the Mustang.
Ford did produce the '68 Cougar with a 427 engine option though, only in
'68.

Thank you for the correction.
In my defense, at least I commented on the photo, and that led to a
more likely explanation of what the car is about. That's what the
Usenet is for. It's not a good thing for false information to go
uncorrected. In this example, withhout your correction readers might
think that there were '67 427 Cougars. Now they won't. And that's a
good thing.
It doesn't bother me, that I can't recite chapter and verse regarding
options and model years about cars built 35-40 years ago. It's too bad
you have to phrase the correction is such childish terms, but I can
understand that too.
And how do you know "427GT" doesn't own a '68 GT-E as well, and that
the photo car is not still a 390? You don't know.
> Poor Willy . . . Nothing but bullshit and meaningless conjecture.
Is that true, Pound Pup? I have never written anything but "bullshit
and meaningless conjecture"? I don't think it's true. I think you know
it's not true. So are you a liar, or not?

This is lame beyond belief, Wack Willy. With this "logic", jerks
like you could pound a group with BS facts and sit back waiting for
other people to rush in for damage control. What the hell is wrong with
you?

Man, you are ****ed up.

Don't take the high road with me; you've got too many recent
comments involving homosexual oral copulation and posterior romance for
that crap to wash.

I have a serious question for you. What are you on? No, seriously.
How do we know he doesn't fly a P-51 to work every day? You are the one
who opined about what his nym means, and now you're coming up with
psychotic crap for screwing up info about a car model that *you* own.
You are one very sick person. And from what I can see, getting worse
by the day.

Lookie at Wacko Willy. Still trying to ASSert himself as Thunder
Snake number 2, after calling everyone in that group an ASSortment of
childish names. Guess expulsion isn't sitting too well with you.
