True Blue 1971 Mustang fastback owned by Howard Johansen from West Jordan, Utah. This was our featured Attitude Of The Week for the week starting November 7, 2010. Howard tells us more, "I bought the car in 1999 in Phoenix, Arizona. It had been found in a garage in California where it had been parked for about 15 years. The car has been restored, but not to original paint and interior color. Many modifications have been done making it more of a restomod, than a back-to-factory car."
