Comments: A little history about 'Baby Blue'.
The 1970 Mustang Fastback is Grabber Blue (hence the name and vanity plates BB BLUE)
with a white interior.
I bought it as my first car on April 11, 1980 and took it on my drivers test on May 4, 1980
on my 16th birthday.
The car has a numbers matching 302 cubic inch engine with the highly desireable Mexican block,
which is a heaver cast. This allows for greater tolerance for high performance stresses.
Baby Blue originally had a 2 barrel carburetor but in 1995 it was changed over to 4 barrel
Edelbrock performer series carburetor. The transmission is a C4 with a shift improvement kit
installed.
A couple of the interesting options is a fold down rear seat and the rear-deck mounted antenna.
Options added in 2006 were the Magnum 500 wheels, rear deck spoiler, front chin spoiler and
rear window louvers.
Baby Blue also has a little brother, a 2008 Vapour Silver Mustang GT with the vanity plates
'Baby's Bro' (BBZ BRO)
