In The Beginning Back in early December 98, when I began restoring my 71 429 Mustang, I looked on the internet and many other locations for information for my restoration and was surprised to find that there was almost nothing available. At that point, I began to think about forming a group that could work together and help each other uncover information about these rare cars. By scouring internet part want ads, I was able to find a few people looking for 429 Mustang parts. Assuming they might be owners, I contacted these people and asked if they would like to form a group. That was December 1998. And Now As of today, we have located, by word of mouth, and mentions in Mustang Monthly, Mustangs and Fords, Mustang Illustrated and a special mailing through the 429 Mustang Registry, 120 other 429 Mustang and Cougar owners from 9 countries. (Along the way, we have also included our close cousin, the 71 429 Cougar!). The Resources We now have two main resources - the 71 429 Mustang/Cougar Technical Forum and the 71 429 Mustang/Cougar E-Mail Group. With the addition of this new website, we now have an additional means to provide information on our rare cars and components! It is my hope that by linking us all together via the web, we will all be a great resource to each other and further enjoy our common hobby. 429 Mustang/Cougar Group and Site Coordinator
