We’re celebrating Mustang’s 60th birthday today. Look at all the people. They were here to celebrate the iconic brand. It’s amazing to see we have 1964 Mustang over here. We got 2020 fours back here. Last count, we’re over, We’re over 200 and I think we have every generation of Mustang represented today, 60 years. It’s an iconic brand. It’s it’s, it’s really much part of pop culture. I’m leaning on my 66 pony addition convertible Mustang. This is an all original car. It’s a it’s a survivor and that’s what I love about it. It’s it was it’s just my, my, it’s my baby. No, no, my wife does, though. She calls it my girlfriend. It’s it’s the V8 engine, right? Which is what we make here at Essex Engine Plant. The engine in this car was produced at Windsor Engine Plant, so Windsor’s got a long standing history of making high quality V8 engines. It’s a 1967 Mustang. I was 17, It was my first car. I’ve restored it twice. I’ve owned it since high school and I took all three of my daughter’s home from the hospital in this car. We’re from a Ford family. My son has a Mustang, my grandson has a Mustang. We have a Mustang. And people just love the sound of the Mustangs when they go down. They’re very muscle car. So when you think of Mustang, you think of power and you think of fast.
