<div>Over at The Bullet, forum member 5.0joe79 posted an image of a notchback Mustang that was turned into Echelon Ford as part of the Cash for Clunkers program. According to 5.0joe’s post, it was supercharged 5-liter notchback. We know Mustang enthusiasts that would drive cross-country to pick up a notchback, as the Fox-body makes a great project Mustang due to their light weight and simple design. <br />

Enthusiasts everywhere are cringing at the thought of destroying all those mid-80’s and 1990 sports cars and their V8 engine parts. The government has required all clunker turn-ins to have the engines disabled and crushed before the dealer will be reimbursed the $3.500.00 to $4,500.00. <br />
<br />
One benefit of the Cash for Clunkers program is the upturn in business for towing companies and automotive recyclers. We’ve even read a report in AdAge that American’s did not grasp the fuel-efficient purchase push and are buying full size pick-up trucks with their cash. <br />
<br />
Through August 12th, dealers had submitted 316,189 vehicle voucher requests to the government with a payout value of $1.33 billion.</div>
