Lee Emford and his 97 "Wild Colt" Mustang


On Monday December 16, 1996, I purchased a beautiful 97 Mustang from Fred Jones Ford in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. It is "Pacific Green" in color, was manufactured at Dearborn, Michigan on November 15, 1996. It was delivered to Oklahoma City by rail. It has medium graphite cloth interior.  It contains a 3.8 EFI engine, V-6, with the "Preferred Equipment" package, to include a 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission. "Colt" delivers 21-22 MPG in the city and 31-34 MPG on the highway.

"Colt" also came with the "Sports Appearance Group", which includes leather wrapped steering wheel, real spoiler, 15 inch polished cast aluminum wheels, front floor mats, anti theft system, defroster rear window, and white accent stripe on both sides. "Colt" was also delivered with tinted glass. I had the car undercoated and also have added white "Mustang" lettering on the real bumper and a small white running pony to each of the doors.

         

 
This has been a fine mustang. It is daily transportation and has won 2nd place awards at both Green Country and Eureka Springs Mustang shows. I keep this Mustang exceptionally clean. It is washed every week or two and the motor is whipped down and cleaned at the same time. "Colt" share's a stable with a fully restored 67 Mustang Fastback (Filly) and a fully restored 86 Forld XLT Lariat, F-150 Pickup, "Henry". I love Ford products and I love the excitement of a Mustang. "Colt" loves to run the Oklahoma prarie.
