Sure wish I had taken a picture of this but it was way before cell phones were even invented. My last place on earth I thought I would see a Mustang was in ST. Johns VI. We were on vacation and rented a jeep to take a tour of the country side and I mean we were out there in the tropics. St. Johns is pretty hilly to say the least and it;'s one of the few places on earth where a short wheel base car has a major advantage. The hills go almost 90 degrees at the bottom going up the other side. Anyway, we are on top of this hill starting down in the middle of nowhere, jungle all around us and I look to my left into the jungle and there is this extremely colorful shack must have been 20 colors with 3 cars parked in what I would describe loosely as driveway. It went almost 90 degrees up hill; can't imaging how they ever got any of these cars in or out, but I'm sure they had some method? Anyway, one of these cars was a pristine Shelby Mustang. Nearly drove off the road into the jungle rubber necking. We all looked at each other in wonder but figured there was only one type of individual that could afford one of those in a driveway in that location let alone the other two cars, so we kept on driving and to this day I think of that guys driveway every time I see a Shelby and wonder if it's still parked in the driveway?
