Vehicle Description
Cruisin Classics is proud to present to you this rare pony in the
form of a 1978 Ford Mustang. As you can see, this Mustang is one of
few.. It is a REAL Monroe Handler. No, you're eyes aren't deceiving
you. The wide quarters, massive rear spoiler and widened front end
are all apart of the Monroe Handler. The stock 2 Barrel fed 302
under the hood runs well and is backed by a 4 speed manual
transmission. Let's take a dive into this oddball and see what it's
all about. The odometer reads 23,225 miles.In 1977, Hot Rod
Magazine built the original Monroe Handler as a project car. The
wild body work was performed by the famous Dave Kent of Creative
Car Craft. Under the hood was a wild small block Ford that Jack
Roush built. Later on, Monroe had 6 additional Handlers built. But,
they were all built with fiberglass instead of metal like the
original was. They were then given away as prizes around the
country. This car, is one of the Famed 6. The 6 cars were all
pulled from the assembly lines in a numerical order, starting with
(last 3 of vin) 631-636. This was the First of the six cars built.
This example is a survivor, and shows as such. The paint is worn,
with a great patina. The interior is in excellent shape with only
minor wear. ENGINE302 C.I V82 Barrel Carb- RebuiltStockNew Gas Tank
