That is the point of having a convertible.

I don't want to ride around with the top up. No fun. Maybe, it is just a woman thing

no not just a woman thing. when i see a car with the top up i ask if its broken. its funny when i was in Maui back in may i saw countless new rental mustang verts with the top up. why go to maui rent a mustang vert and drive the car with the top up? cant take the heat? they have lots of town cars for rent

Yes, you are right, lots of towncars for the non-sun fans. You would think Maui and the top down would be natural......

Pete thank you so much for the pictures. I am so glad you are an avid picture taker and so into these cars. We all get to benefit from your enthusiasm of the ASC's.

if i had some type of card or flyer to pass out about this site i could have given out 10 of them today... lots of people with cars like ours that have never heard of our site most of them didnt have there cars with them.

lots of questions...
one guy i spoke to swore he once had an 86 mustang ascmclaren coupe... i told him there was no such breed but he wouldent give up. i just agreed he said hank has one too hes turning an 87 t top mustang into an 87 ascmclaren mustang coupe. ????
that was me good so you do remember me then and it was a 1986 mustang mclaren vert not a coupe and the the car i have is a hatch not a coupe.i need to go through the secretary of state and pull the vin and post it here to prove it.i don't have a pic of it but i will look through my old pics and see. it's funny how a conversation can go and i knew you had a hard time with it when you said that they didn't make mustang mclarens prior to 87 and a few prototypes.i have a friend who is the brother in law to peter muscat i will try to get ahold of him and see if pete new how many of these were produced.i don't take offense peter because if someone were to come up to me and tell me that they owned an 86 mustang mclaren convertible i would think they were nuts too. but i will look into it and post .

Wow this is baffling. Why would they need to produce a prototype of an ASC Mustang for '86 if they already had a 1986 Mustang convertible and a Capri ASC vert for 1986? If anything I would imagine a prototype of the restyled 1987 Mustang would make more sense right? Love to see the follow up on this one for sure.

Definately more questions asked with the top up imo. Also like the idea that the car is more secure so you can walk around and look at everyone elses ride and not worry about yours.

That makes no sense unless they are afraid to operate the top? Heck I would leave it down the whole rental if forecast was for sunny days lol.

Me, too. Sometimes, I want to move to another state, so I can drive it and put the top down many more months of the year.
